Agreed. The tough thing, though, is that it's (generally) a lot easier to spot a bad engineer than a bs "ideas guy".

For an engineer, sure. But for a business guy, it might be a bit tricky. Though I'd say a good business guy probably has a bunch of engineering contacts.

It behooves everyone to be able to spot a narcissist, and that eliminates a huge swath of bad "idea guys" and bad MBAs.
