I really hate that business people really think that they went to a couple extra years of business school with some accounting on the side and think that’s enough to run an engineering based business. Look at Boeing too, all of these companies that are at their heart engineering companies are failing because they put these moronic suits in charge - and they’re so arrogant they refuse to listen to the people who actually build their product.
I was sent to a conference for college journalists at U.Ga. in 2000. In the goodie bag was a copy of a prof’s book, When MBAs Run the Newsroom. Let’s just say he wasn’t off.
Distancing admin from ops while letting people with no actual knowledge of the field run the show ends poorly no matter what field you’re in. I mean, it’s so obvious as to be insulting to even point out.

Isn’t IBM at this point a consulting firm toying with hardware?
