There was some running jokes about one of the MARLANT GOFOs trying to bump up his twitter followers to get promoted, but it was only half in jest. Wouldn't be the first GOFO that tried to make themselves front and centre on PA photos or events.

Compare the british army vs the Canadian. Type in a given regiment from each into instagram. Tell me which makes you want to work with them. British every damn time. Hell the RAF Regiment manages to make itself look cool.

Well that answers some questions about some of my previous bosses.
And some of the GOFOs Gone Wild in recent years...
That's it -yup.
The problem with any hierarchy that promoted from within is that there is a tendency to promote in one's own image. DND has a tall hierarchy with a bureaucracy that tends to centralization and risk aversion. The likelihood that it will ever escape that model is highly unlikely unless there is massive outside pressure to change.
