While we're at it let's get rid of coaches for sports teams and just allow the players to coach themselves

When is the last time you were someone who did real work at a Fortune 500 company and were coached by a CEO?

Just want to call out that these are both not great examples?
High performance sports teams have a captain that is often elected in some form from the team.
Likewise the crew of a pirate ship used to elect their captain.
Both examples serve contrary to your point, and there's no reason you couldn't have something similar in business: a cooperative that elects a CEO, rather than it being done by a board of other CEO's.
