Pretty much any upper body of a serious organisation would work that way. A tad bit of detachment needs to exist between doing things, and making decisions about doing things, and making policies about doing things, and judging if things were done right. This is also called 'separation of powers/concerns' in modern political lingo.
Or you will end up in all kinds of 'action paralysis' situations, and you would also end up dragging your emotions into these things which will have unintended consequences. The worse that could happen is the whole organisation could reduce to doing things for the self preservation of top individual(s) and not the organisation or people/interests they serve.
