kcowan said:Seems like men over 5'8" dominate the responses here, whereas the women respondents are mostly shorter than 5'8". I could be made to believe that taller people get noticed more and may get promoted if they are good. But, while that could contribute to the ability to ER sooner, it has nothing to do with being smart.
I am 6'2" and a member of Mensa since 1972. I would never attribute IQ test success with business success. Communciations and astuteness are much more important than problem-solving skills.
