Interestingly, what you said about businessmen could be said about military men. Ike did well since he was more an administrator who had to get along with many disparate personalities. Then I have a retired Army, West Point, Colonel who works as a CFO for a tech company. We are talking in the exam room and he mentions being on a committee with nine other people all civilians. They have to decide something so I asked how that went. I already knew the answer as he rolled his eyes and says herding cats was easier. Yet, then I have a retired Rear Admiral, who became a lawyer, and then a Federal Judge before finally retiring. Super nice guy, we could talk for hours, and he was very adept at negotiation and finding the middle ground.
