110. It's a common misconception
that all psychopaths are driven to murder to express their evilness. 2-4% of the population are psychopaths. Only a very small percentage of those have ever killed someone else. I'd say it is their perceived (superficial thought it may be) charm, their tendency to exude confidence and their ability to deceive on a large scale that enables them to populate a lot of the CEO ranks. Most psychopaths are just looking for a way to make life easy for them and have people do things for them. And yea, I agree, that today's corporate culture actually cultivates this type of personality in the corporate world. Besides, psychopaths are likely to fuck anyone over that doesn't admire/help/promote them so some reach the top because they shit on everyone on their climb to the top. One good thing - a psychopath almost always either reveals their hand or destroys the company they are in charge of.
