I didn't object to 20 years in school at all, In fact, my post sorts out the 20 years, i.e., grad school is only 2-6 years more than under grad, it's not like CEOs go to school for 20 years on something different that the 17 years the rest of us go on, including undergrad.

Again, for the 3rd time, if you have any evidence that supports your theory that CEOs are better trained, I'm happy to read it.

And as for how someone becomes a CEO, here's what some experts have observed::::

A little more color on these particular types of psychopaths:

These "financial psychopaths" generally lack empathy and interest in what other people feel or think. At the same time, they display an abundance of charm, charisma, intelligence, credentials, an unparalleled capacity for lying, fabrication, adn manipulation, and a drive for thrill seeking.

A financial psychopath can present as a perfect well-rounded job candidate, CEO, manager, co-worker, and team member because their destructive characteristics are practically invisible. They flourish in fast-paced industries and are experts in taking advantage of company systems and processes as well as exploiting communication weaknesses and promoting interpersonal conflicts.



The thread is about whether CEOs are special or worth more in any way than burger flippers. I am sticking to the OP topic.

How do you figure that 12 years of grade school and junior high and high school + 4 years of college equals 17 years?

Do you seriously disagree that an attribute less than 12% of the population possesses is maybe not average? Do you seriously believe all MBAs are CEOs, so any stat applicable to MBAs is also applicable to CEOs?
