"Every company" was definitely poor wording, a seemingly qualifier should be there.
Perhaps democracy is a poor word as well?
My thinking is on changing the hierarchy in a way that results in positive impacts to productivity, innovation, and employee satisfaction. Perhaps in a way similar to the formation of the USA.
The top down method currently used seems to have a rather negative impact. It is still a popularity contest, the only difference I see is where that contest is focused.
Is the preference not to want to work and make things better? Is that gone? Is the new model do what you're told and find another 10% effort job or five? Possibly. Maybe people like that, maybe they don't.
Though I prefer in life to look at potential solutions than at problems. I realize that's not normal
The point of the focus on bottom line profits is because it cannot be gamed like a popularity contest.
Banks would never add money, or subtract money, from a bank account just because of someone's fame or popularity, so they serve as the neutral arbiter.
It can of course be gamed in other ways such as prioritizing quaterly profits by neglecting longer term potential.
