It’s such a perverse filter: take accountability/blame and you get relegated. Pass the blame and market yourself as the one heroically fighting the dysfunction and you get promoted.

I wonder if there are any management/organizational systems which have accountability and graceful failure as positive requirements for promotion.

Is this much different from the economic norm of socializing losses and privatizing gains ?
It’s indeed very similar on a micro level.
