My examples were more like every employee getting to decide (cynically, individually) what's best for them. Your examples are where every employee figures out (altruistically, collectively) what is best for the CEO. Breaking the symmetry, CEO in both cases decides what's best for the CEO (officially "best for everyone", but in fact you are only counted as "everyone" if you are an employee who is contributing to what's best for the CEO). I admit that your proposition could very well work fine. Many people do love to get into the shoes of higher-ups.
