Absolutely right. But the thing is that many so-called leaders will no longer have a raison d'être if there are no more unnecessary meetings and all that fuss. Many of them do nothing all day but sit in meetings, achieve nothing and still feel very important. That's the misery of the world of work: it's not usually the best who get into management positions, it's not the most qualified and certainly not the ones who work the hardest. It's the most unscrupulous, those who pass off the work of others as their own, people who would never achieve anything on their own or in a small company that can't afford to waste salaries on froth-mongers. LinkedIn makes it clear how this all works, I think: there, too, it is not the competent people who really understand their work who have the most success, it is the busybodies, the networkers and narcissists. If the competent people set the tone, there would be no discussion about office duties in an IT company. It's only held on to so that managers can live out their fantasies of omnipotence and post nonsense on LinkedIn.
