From John Maloney - for some reason his comment never reached here - even tho it seems to be directed here ...

Jobs and the 'chief' moniker are classic anti-patterns. Leadership in institutions and regulations, to name two, suffer what I refer to as ankylosing spondylitis or fused-spine syndrome.

Jobs and Chiefs originated w/Roman Legions as an efficient method to assure manpower and financial requirements, among others, were measured, adjusted, and met. It stuck, and we're stuck.

To which I add how many terms we use in business are warlike? Often positioning the customer as the enemy and the company as the army. It's a problem that needs fixing.
