“Unlocking the Secrets of Your Genes: What Your Physical Traits Really Say About You!”
People With Wider Faces Are Viewed As Better Leaders
In 2011, psychologists performed a study to determine which traits most frequently lead employees to judge someone as a great CEO. They found that the width of a CEO’s face influenced how others saw them. During the study, participants viewed people with rectangular faces as better leaders than people with long faces.
The researchers added that tall people with wide faces were viewed as the most “powerful.” This relationship only applied to men. That said, these results only indicate how others see CEOs and not how the CEOs actually perform in their leadership roles.
Strong Jawlines Equal Strength
According to Psychology Life Well, many people subconsciously associate defined jawlines with a determined, tenacious personality. “I believe the connection comes from the fact that the jaw is the strongest joint in the body,” says author and psychologist Dr. Michele Barton.
Dr. Barton elaborated that the association could have ancient roots. Strong jawlines come with the ability to eat well and sustain life. It could also be associated with ferocity, since the more muscular the jawline, the stronger the bite.
