Factoid of the Week: Are You Tall Enough for Success?

Item published on Jun 16th, 2007 | Comment | Trackback | Categories »

Did you know that the average height for a Fortune 500 CEO is 6 feet tall?

That’s 3 inches taller than the Average American man. What’s more interesting to note is that 30% of these CEOs are 6 feet 2 inches tall or more! Now compare that with the fact that only 3.9% of the overall United States population is also of this height. Some more interesting height stats? Surveys have also shown that less than 3% of CEOs were below 5’7″ in height and that 90% of CEOs are above average height.

According to Maxim, the impact male height has on female attraction is also quite strong. In fact, more women choose a shorter guy ONLY when they know that the guy is a convicted fellon. In all other cases in the survey, women chose the taller guy (even when shorter guy had more income, more attractive face etc.)
