>I've seen lots of instances of people complaining about leadership decisions, thinking the work could be done differently or more efficiently, questioning priorities, etc. They don't have the executive view that is looking across the organization.

There are lots of instances that the leadership decisions are BS, and hamper growth or drive the company to the ground.

There's also instances of leadership being installed with the goal to drive a company into the ground.
