Definitely something investors should be aware of so that they can further optimize their decision making. However, scores of physical attractiveness are going to be strongly influenced by the character & charisma of the speaker. And I think it’s undeniable that a highly charismatic and compelling speaker should have a better chance of success in leadership, public relations, and sales. I would prefer to see independent readings of attractiveness based on photographs alone, so that the attractiveness score is purely visual. Still visual attractiveness may count for something in later success but I would agree with the authors that in an ideal world, we’d be blind to someone’s physical characteristics because that is something you’re born with.
