It's interesting to see how in some industries there is a LOT of trust in a single person having and executing a clear vision. Creating a completely new idea with complete autonomy, authority and responsibility. Maybe the thing that comes closest is a startup founder, but in established companies there is nothing that comes close even though it's a huge drive for innovation in other industries.
Imagine if software development had the same kind of human direction/vision. Real vision entrusted to a single person with authority to execute it. Not vision that has to be brought to life through influence from playing the company politics and building it to fit some specific KPIs. Some founders might have it, also some videogame producers/directors. For the rest, most software seems to be designed by committee.
