I don’t think that’s true.

Also, think about the corollary: if that was true then most certainly the opposite is also true that technical people are terrible at business decisions.

Hardly my experience. Some are, but some are excellent business people.

I'd say thst is generally true, yes. That's why the CTO isn't the CEO.

The big issue people are hinting at is that there's not much balance in this C suite these days. Just a bunch of people who all put money first, that isn't the CFO.
