In Japan, engineeing companies are run by the engineers which I think is the better way.
Ill never understand why American companies insist on being led by business majors who know nothing and dont care about the product being built.
Are they? Rakuten is led by a business guru and the products are subpar unless they bought them. Also Japan has a huge deficit of native (software) engineers, so most of the engineers at this kind of companies are Chinese and Indian. Which companies are you thinking about?

Making money by shuffling money around.
A lot of it isn't an "insistence" per se as much as it's company founders who did have some kind of connection with the product the company makes dying or retiring and getting replaced with people who don't.
Ironically, the MBA was originally created as a way for people with degrees in more "boots on the ground" positions to learn about business so they could more easily move into management positions. What it's morphed into is unfortunate.
