Had a coworker move from associate to supervisor to operations manager in a total of 7 months. We couldn’t figure out why because he was a moron. Turns out his dad was the CEO of our biggest customer.
It seems to be the rule rather than exception, they get there from connections and money, and being a piece of shit that exploits others to get ahead of them.
I have consciously noticed my entire life I’ve been fortunate that every manager and boss I’ve ever had has been wonderfully compassionate, good people skills, logical thinker, all that good stuff. I have consciously noticed that because I’ve heard so many horror stories of bad bosses.
Not sure how any human could reach boss leadership status with logic processing skills of a flea, but okay.

Lack of conscience and self regard seem to be the most correlated with climbing the corporate ladder in my experience.
