Name Of A CEO

A recent research by LinkedIn suggests that a lot can be told of a person from his or her name.  After scouring its repository of 100 million professionals, LinkedIn has released some fascinating data about first names and career paths.   


CEO Men were most likely to be called Peter, Bob, Jack, Bruce and Fred, while women CEOs were often called Deborah, Sally, Debra, Cynthia and Carolyn.  


Probably because not many people bearing my name registered in LinkedIn to generate the big-enough pool of statistics in there, may be yours would be.   


Worth checking it out and might even worth changing your name to Bob or Debra if you think that helps get you up the corporate ladder!
