Well, possibly.
There's been plenty of
stuff written up about why tall people are more likely to do well professionally, but I hadn't really encountered it myself until today, when I went along to the Scrum of Scrums (someone from each team working on the project goes along to report on the overall progress). I was the shortest man there - and at 5'10" I'm used to being at least average height - with most of the other attendees being 6'2". The women were more varied, but they were still mostly taller than average.
