Meet Andrew, the average British CEO: Study reveals the typical boss is a 55-year-old white, Cambridge-educated man who earns an annual salary of £4,196,000
In news that will likely surprise no-one, Britain's average CEO is a 55-year-old privately educated white man who studied Economics at Cambridge and makes £4,196,000 a year. Data from the FTSE100 - a list of the 100 biggest companies listed on the London Stock Exchange - has been used to work out the most common background for a UK CEO. Researchers from People Managing People used artificial intelligence (AI) to combine the LinkedIn profile pictures of Britain's top 100 CEOs. The resulting composite image reveals the face of the average CEO – an oddly familiar man dubbed Andrew. Finn Bartram, Editor of People Managing People, said the uncanny digital portrait shows the'undeniable privileges and gender disparities for the top jobs at some of the biggest companies in the country.'
