Nah there definitely are. It's just that higher ups generally choose people who show that they want leadership because it's easy to give it to people who want to tell other people what to do. At military school I knew a surprising amount of students in leadership positions who just happened to be charismatic, wanted to see a good job done, and just naturally turned to other people to assign tasks, but somehow weren't dicks about it. There were plenty of dicks in leadership positions but non-dicks were not that rare.
The problem is that unlike Anteater says in capitalism the people who actually jockey for leadership positions, the dicks, tend to get noticed faster and tend to go higher.
