How is that a counter example? Seems like another example of “professional managers” coming in and screwing up a company.
The first Boeing CEOs were from Boeing and were steeped in Boeings engineering culture and valued that expertise. Later CEOs like you mentioned didn’t. Boeing also acquired McDonnell Douglas, and many thought it was great that Boeing got to keep all McDD’s “experienced” managers.

The screwing up started at the top by changing metrics and priorities post-McDD.

And the screwing up was richly rewarded.
