Not all execs care about "sustainable". They often have quarterly targets. To get some wins an exec could outsource, complete a bunch of tasks, then move to another company on a higher paid job, leaving former company to mop up.
See this a lot with sales also. Transactional client relationships promising the world to get the deal and hit commission multipliers. They then move to another company with "success stories" leaving implementation teams to reset client expectations.
