The trouble with all of these great ideas is that while the management/leadership/whatever may claim they want to solve these problems - they actually don’t want these kinds of solutions.

What they want is to maintain the power structure that got them where they are - and want to remain - at all costs.

It’s like asking politicians who got elected using the current system to reform it. It ain’t gonna happen.



Some leaders are insecure and guard their power jealously, but others truly are level-five leaders who want their organizations to thrive.


In my experience the distribution of the former tends to increase exponentially with the size of the company.


Yeah, good people are rare in most professions.

Additionally, humans tend to resist work to become more self-aware, and such self-awareness is critical for good leaders/managers (and yes I know those two things are different).


> increase exponentially with the size of the company

Most large countries are run by psychopaths incl the US recently
