McDonald's made a fortune. Because they were able to create a system of scale. That you can take anyone to flip burgers.

Sure, but Apple Computer is larger than McDonald's and built much more quickly. Different skill set.

Why do you think most CEO's do not know anything about technology like writing code.

Their skill set is in obtaining and directing resources, strategy, capital raising, and motivation. They don't need to know how to write code or flip burgers. Different job, different skill set.

But still they are leading the tech team to execute a task.

Not really. The CEO is leading upper management, only part of which is leading the tech team. The rest of upper management is leading sales, marketing, finance, legal, and a host of other departments within the entire organization.

IQ is not "be all, end all." I will agree with you on that. But it is also not irrelevant. It is highly relevant at the macro level.
