So a lot of times those C-levels will be pretty average people eh?

The thing that's not average about them is their social position and consequent connections. I've met a lot of them, from firms whose name you'd know, and they're the types who would have been B students at competitive universities. Not stupid by any means, but not brilliant. But their network of acquaintances is aways extensive and elite.
