This seems like a question that helps people preserve internal just-world thinking and protect against the feeling that the idiots are in charge. Why would he personally need to oversee running the company into the ground? in a universe where there is some theoretical payout for bankrupting the company (which may be this one) wouldn't it would be much easier to keep his reputation as a genius intact and let somebody else crash it? Occam's razor says he just doesn't know what he's doing.

At the very least, he hedges his bets if nothing else. I don't like the guy, but him suddenly sucking at business is admittedly a new phenomenon and I wouldn't rule out a greater play.
