I think its a great Illustration of the different problematic behaviors you encounter when you work pretty much anywhere. However, the solutions although quite straightforward and make sense, in real the situation is not so simplistic. For e.g. you have the dictator PMs that refuse to do anything that didn't come from them. The solution is to have the upper management talk to them. In my work, we have a PM who is literally sitting at the top of the chain (reports to CEO) and displays those characteristics. Pretty everything anyone has tried to solve this problem in the last 10 years, hasn't worked and people have destroyed their own careers over trying to fix the behavior. In cases like this, the only thing that works is either do what they say or find another job.
