Yes but I feel like my countrymen are much more prone to people-pleasing (or in this case board-pleasing) because of our culture. We're just expected to bow to authority.

We're just expected to bow to authority.

Even if you're the authority yourself? Also: that sounds like a great place for con-men 🤔

CEOs like this let the board control them instead of convincing board members of their plans.

And yeah, great place for con-men, especially of the religious variety.
