> Often that person's leadership wasn't the problem
What's the basis for this claim? I would rather think often it was the problem. Not absolutely every time, but most times. After all, the C-suite makes the decisions. I can not believe management decisions do not influence the course of a business.
Sure, it's possible that outside circumstances were such that no decision could avoid a bad outcome. But that's a rather unlikely possibility. Most of the time, outcomes depend on decisions. Otherwise businesses would be some headless automatons. And if that was the case, we should not pay execs much at all.
It's an obvious cheat: when times are good - it's all because of the leaders, when times are bad, it's all because of the environment. This is what they claim, but it is not the truth. Again, what's the basis for this claim? Any proof, studies, anything?
