Completely agree, and I think your three points under “the value of steady hands” are hugely important and often underrated, at all levels of organisations. I also think 50 years ago these features would have been valued much more highly, but this has changed with the culture of rapid career climbing among ambitious young people.
Although the context is a little different, I think the keenness of huge companies to keep the same people in leadership for decades is a datapoint in favour of this as well.
