If it came down to hundreds of decisions along the way, not just one or two, that isn't luck. She's a good decision maker.

Bad decisions can have good outcomes. People are notoriously bad at predicting the future, so really it depends on how often you get lucky. I think charisma has the greatest effect on this.

I would argue if bad decision leads to better outcome then it is a good decision.
