as u can tell from smrt and NOL,management and leadership skills is not enough,u actually need ceos who know what the fuck they are doing,have the knowledge of the industry and the technical expertise.
maybe that is what they teach u in business 101 school,maybe management and leadership is enough for a mediocre company.but for those companies who are truly outstanding,u need ceos that understands their company well,their industry well,their technology well,like elon musk,larry ellison,jeff bezos or ceo of google or goldman sachs or morgan stanley or black rock.these ceos are born to do what they are born to do......surely u dont expect any two bit ministar or some 3rd rate paper general from SAF to hop on to the board of goldman sachs and run it like a tight ship.......their ceos climbed thru the ranks of their organizations and cutthroat industries,proven they are talented in their fields of work and established their fearsome reputations as a trader or banker or whatever before reaching the top.
even the ceo of coca cola is no ordinary human being,he is the master of salesmen,master of marketing,he based his reputation on generating billions of sales in his previous companies throughout his lifetime career......unlike our ministers and paper general
