The problem is that managers hire other managers. And if the fresh college grad can CRM and PPS and "other fancy buzzword acronym", while the technical guy who cares about his folks actually "gets it", the manager manager might be swayed by the buzzwords, and while technical manager spends all his time making things actually work, the buzzword whore spends most of his day figuring out how to screw the other managers at his level and cozy up to his/her own boss. You know the saying, "f*ck up - move up"
