I think most corporate America works this way. Every company has a board of directors (i.e stake holders (i.e investors, with many investments, including land)) they pass down edicts from on high. "If you want my money you have to do XYZ." From there c-suite executives figure out how to pull it off. Sometimes investments in one area affect decisions in another, which is technically a conflict of interest, which is technically illegal, but hey that's why America is famous for its corporate integrity.
