Definitely, but the desire to tell people what to do is often rewarded simply because it's easier to give those people positions of power than evaluating how good of a leader someone is. Plenty of people network to get good positions, but there's a limited amount of positions for even those people and it simply makes it easier to decide who should lead when someone takes it upon themselves to lead without having the authority in the first place. People in high positions don't necessarily care that the person being promoted is capable, they just need a body to put in a position who'll do the job.
It was much easier to notice in a school with 150 students where capable leaders were in more short supply, so when some domineering **** who you'd never think to give a leadership position was given one you knew why.
