Intelligence is useful.
It helps us analyse, reason and solve problems.
Unfortunately, it can also help us construct extraordinarily sophisticated explanations for why we were right all along.
Once reputation gets attached to a decision, the objective can quietly change. We stop asking, "Is this still, right?" and start asking, "How can I prove I wasn't wrong?"
Smart people can be particularly good at this because they have more intellectual tools available for the defence.
The problem is no longer the bad decision.
It is the need to protect the person who made it.
Sometimes the smartest sentence in the room is simply, "I got this wrong."
