A recent study found that intelligence only gets you so far and that those at the top are slightly less intelligent that those beneath them. There so many things that can be said about that. It is the joke that everyone wants to tell.

When I was in the Navy, the enlisted tended to feel that way about the officers. The junior officers felt that way about the senior officers. Children feel that way about their parents. Have we all be right the whole time?

So, is this true because those at the top have figured out they don’t know everything, and therefore listen better than those who are smart enough to think they know everything? What do you think?
