Yep, and it's no coincidence that startups have been responsible for such a large proportion of the economic dynamism and innovation in recent decades. Unfortunately, it's difficult to do this with public institutions*, which typically need a great crises or revolution to bring about both a clear need for reformation, and a discreditation of the old guard, in order for young people to be in a position to do so (as happened with Pitt following the disastrous American Revolutionary War). However, as I argue above, even without those conditions, there's still plenty of mileage on the margins for leaders at all levels to be providing more opportunities for young people.
*though it has been done, such as by Hoover during WW1:
The young can still start their own organizations!
