It's a problem for technocrats also that they are not seen as people who can be generalists.
The generalists in charge sometimes seem to resent the specialist for his or her deep subject knowledge and put them in a box that they can't get out of without moving.
Equally you get people who are very valuable in a specialist role and actually worth more than their manager, although they don't always get paid more.
