We all tend to believe that weird individuals tend to have superpowers.
Sam Bankman is a great example, financiers from BlackRock were captivated when they saw a FTX CEO driving a Toyota Corolla in grandpa’s shoes with messy hair. They also thought that playing on pc while important meeting was a sign of great multitasking.
Other example of terrible leader was Steve Jobs (his first round in apple especially). Steve is broadly known from his speeches at The Worldwide Developers Conference developing apple products and being a visionaire, but there are also some less known facts about him. From a young age, he really cares about his spiritual and physical health, and it leads to many tensions with other people. In the beginning, he believed that he don’t need to wash himself or use antiperspirant, which could be disturbing because he was working in San Jose in California. He believed in strange diets like eating only apples or carrots.(this belief later caused spread of his cancer and his dead). But there were much bigger problems, he tended to focus on expensive and useless details like paint on the inside of a computer case (only factory workers and serviceman stuff could see it) or ideal cubic shape of the pc. Also, he had a tendency to behave in harmful way, he frequently lay off coworkers and then hire them again. Stealing ideas was a common thing, many times after developer show him some feature he says it is not good enough in a very vulgar way and then after rethinking it he claimed that it was his idea/invention, he also patented most discoveries of his team under his name. Many times, Jobs was manipulating peoples or bursting into tears when someone more important does not agree with him. He also believes that he could lie to people if he needs. All this was shown when board of directors kicked him out of apple, this day price of Apple stock raised significantly.
The other example is Elizabeth Holmes, founder of Theranos. As a 19 years old medical university drop out, she raised a company Theranos with money from her parents. Later she raised 700 millions dollar from investors fooled by young brilliant college dropout vision that she created. Holmes was trying really hard to discover a small blood testing device, but after she understood that it does not work she started lying and falsifying reports. She was even modyfing her voice to sound more mature.
To sum up, visionaries are great at having vision but execution, empathy and respect for other people are their weaknesses, this is why they need someone to control them.
