    In Japan, engineeing companies are run by the engineers which I think is the better way.

    Ill never understand why American companies insist on being led by business majors who know nothing and dont care about the product being built.

      Because the thing that makes American companies make money isn’t the production of better products its “business magic” that games stock prices. its been that way for a long time.

        Sadly the virtuous circle of profits being put back into research and development seems badly broken in so many business now.

      Are they? Rakuten is led by a business guru and the products are subpar unless they bought them. Also Japan has a huge deficit of native engineers, so most of the engineers at this kind of companies are Chinese and Indian. Which companies are you thinking about?

        i always thought the car makers and other manufacturers were engineed led. I admit i am no expert in modern Japanese business.
