I know one or two democratic countries that are doing OK despite being democratic.

Democracy doesn't have to be leaderless: we have a good few hundred years of experience in running entities many times more complex than a company using democratic processes, appointing leaders by vote etc.

I don't want the companies providing essential goods and services to run as inefficiently as governments do. It would be disastrous.

There are many more governments than companies providing essential goods and services. And in times of crisis (say, flooding or fires), it's the military and other government entities that have to step in to fix things, never private companies.
