This is a question Worst Person for the Job

In a week where it emerges that the new Health Secretary is a fan of the hocus-pocus that is homeopathy, tell us about people who are spectacularly out of their depth in a job. Have you ever found yourself wallowing in your own incompetence? Tell us. (Note: "Name of football manager/politician - nuff said" does not constitute an answer)

Well, if you're a manager,
it really shouldn't matter if the people you're managing know more about what they're doing than you do. Your job is to manage - not necessarily to get your hands dirty.

something of a defining line - in general a good boss is one who could do the jobs of all the people he bosses.

It certainly doesn't hurt.
