Stack ranking and vicious careerism can demolish a company independent of anything else. Look at what is happening to Google, with its calibration score nonsense and the draconian transfer policy. Same story, 7 years back in time. "Vision" is one thing but a lot of people have vision (or think they do). Very few people have that rare combination of interpersonal empathy and competency around complexity that enable them to reliably make good decisions as executives of large companies. (Worse yet, over 90 percent of the people given those positions get them as favors and utterly lack both skill sets.)
