Many people assume that being the most knowledgeable person in a particular area will propel them to the top, but that rarely happens. A confident person who doesn't know half the things you do can go into a room and make you feel stupid.
Yep. I am a director and our SVP couldn't do any of our jobs if required, but that's not their job. This person is adept at the politics and gaming of the situation, but it also helps they were brought in by leadership.
I am 100% confident I could do their job, but I am 100% positive I don't want that job. I previously reported directly to exec and it was a 24 hour job, it sucked. This person is a nice buffer.
