Yeah I what I have found is the most common trait among the c-suite isn't intelligence or education. It's how willing are you to be an asshole? How irrational and insistent are you willing to be. How many people are you willing to blow up at in order to "make things happen"? Can you intimidate and bend people to your will? You will advance in capitalism.
And I wouldn't say "hard work" correlates per se, but what does is your willingness to give up your life and your free time for your career. And that's very different from "hard work".
Depends on the line of work. The slave driving at my old job(s) wasn't necessarily in holding people down and increasing productivity. It was usually in spending countless hours every week chasing "new business" on top of the job we were hired to perform. I'll have to leave it at that in order to keep from self-doxxing. But the result is the same: doing 1.5 - 2.5 times the work or equivalent in hours so the Director or CEO above you doesn't have to do shit and scrapes a percentage off the top.
