Good point. Pedigree is and always has been a huge advantage. A disproportionate number of execs&#x27; backgrounds I&#x27;ve looked into have Yale&#x2F;Harvard&#x2F;Stanford&#x2F;etc somewhere. I wonder if that will ever change. Having worked with many folks who attended those universities, most do not strike me as being intrinsically more capable than their counterparts who attended other universities, although a few have a high degree of self-assuredness (which, granted, is quite valuable as a career trait).
