The thing with MBA managers is the see their compensation terms incentivize short-term profits.
The game then becomes to get your stock options, cash out, and move on before your short-term thinking becomes evident.
Meanwhile, companies run by owners/founders have much more long range planning.
I was once at a place with a lot of turnover. The executive thinking became “why should I invest resources into something which only my successor will benefit from?”
If the MBA managers actually have experience on the line or have their hands dirty from knowing how the products they make actually work, they are not qualified to be running anything.
Steve Jobs was there from the beginning of Apple and knew how the machines actually worked and how people use them, the guy who replaced was selling Pepsi and probably had little to no experience of how computers work and how people use them on a daily basis, the results speak for themselves.
GE, HP, and many other technology companies have gone thru the same thing, the one thing that separates Boeing from these other companies, is when one of Boeing’s products fail people die.
