You think a company can exist with just executive leadership?

Would love to see just one example of a billion+ valuation company with nothing but C-suite and that against the ratio of companies with 1000+ employees who are worth a billion+. The only two sub-dozen workers that come to mind for me are Theranos and Bernie Madoff and I'm not sure they are examples of success.

No, they need good workers. IME some people are a net drain and only slow others down without much positive contribution. Sadly.

Yes this is true of some of course. But if it were true of all nothing would happen
