That's possible, I don't know about the heavy industries. Checked for Toyota, founder was an engineer, second family CEO was also engineer, third was MBA, current CEO is not from the family and is an engineer. In any case, I don't think having an engineer CEO guarantees anything, aren't the GAFAM mostly led by engineers but got enshitifified for short term profit anyways?
