Pale and Male

What does a CEO look like? This, usually.

A really interesting, quick study.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN you combine the faces of 400 CEOs?

A startling picture of just how similar – and pale – our modern leaders are.

SumoCoupon ran the experiment using face-manipulation software Psychomorph to “average” the faces of 400 executives in 10 different industries – from nonprofits to entertainment to transportation. They also averaged the age and income of CEOs in each industry.

Some of the results are to be expected (startup CEOs are about 15 years younger than the rest, for one) while others are more surprising (female leaders in politics seem to have shorter hair than the other women).
