Regardless of whether a majority or plurality of leaders/managers are bad (because there are definitely tons of them, I may be one myself), I think a lot of people use personal outcomes to blame leaders/managers for structural issues.

Perhaps a team delivered a mediocre or poor outcome, but was that outcome potentially the best result due to organizational constraints? I suppose that I’m just pointing out that since leadership can be “hard and opaque” judging it’s effectiveness can be just as hard
