I think there is something important there that all people are different and have different goals/experiences/skills etc. I would say that many companies corporate hierarchy enables/rewards people with political goals to end up in positions of power which slowly corrode the company. It also allows for "bozos" per OP language to propel up the ladder and espouse their ideas without any pragmatic experience or understanding to really solve the problems. People who present well and can play the political game but can't translate to execution. The worst people for that are the finance people who are sometimes good at numbers, models, they think they understand everything (I.e. MBAs) and somehow accrue power. Once you company has a lot of those at the top level of leadership you are about to enter builder hell.
