This is a silly take the two largest companies are headed by non founder MBA grads. Each who grew their respective companies ~10x.
Somewhat ironically, I think Google's brightest days had Eric Schmidt (MBA, "adult in the room") as CEO.
This isn't to say MBAs are always a good thing either, and certainly Google isn't a typical example.
>Early in his career, Schmidt held a series of technical positions with IT companies including Byzromotti Design, Bell Labs (in research and development),[19] Zilog, and Palo Alto Research Center (PARC).
During his summers at Bell Labs, he and Mike Lesk wrote Lex,[23][7] a program used in compiler construction that generates lexical-analyzers from regular-expression descriptions.
Sun Microsystems In 1983, Schmidt joined Sun Microsystems as its first software manager.[19]
It’s not that founders are more skilled, it’s that successful ones who stick around have different priorities. The long term performance of their existing stock is worth more than hitting targets. Not a guarantee of success, but something to consider.
We're still talking about the current first derivative of their stock price. Let's not go overboard reading those tea leaves.
