Let $C$ be a positive definite correlation matrix partitioned as
$$C=\begin{bmatrix} I_{k_1} & A \\ A' & I_{k_2} \end{bmatrix}$$
How can I show that the eigenvalues of $AA'$ are all less than $1$?

Using the Schur complement of the lower-right entry, we see that $C$ is positive definite if and only if $I_{k_2} - AA'$ is positive definite. This occurs if and only if the eigenvalues of $AA'$ are less than $1$.
