Maybe this is just because leadership is hard, and more people are needed in leadership positions than are capable of fulfilling the role?

There are probably too many managers tbh
Leadership is not managing though.

I think the problem is in conflating the two so the leading gets forgotten because most of the time is spent managing.

Maybe the criteria for selecting leaders is based on connections as opposed to personal qualities.
