That makes total sense to me. The larger a top-down organization is, the more the people on top exist in a reality that is socially mediated. That's especially true given that the theory of the MBA is that it's a universal management degree, meaning that knowledge of the domain is at best secondary. In a social context, confidence is very appealing. Strong belief becomes executives' reality.
