Authority figures who mistakenly think they have high IQs

I was in a program once, and the director of that program had a 115 IQ, and thought he was smarter than everyone else in that program. My IQ is 124.

He believes that people with brown skin can’t possibly have a higher IQ than him, proof that he wasn’t as smart as he thought he was. He didn’t know how to read a bell curve, he thought since most brown skins have lower IQs on average, that ALL brown skins must have lower IQs than him.

Have you ever had a supervisor or some other kind of superior who thought he was smarter than you for some reason, and he was wrong?

This basically is every female boss.

I had a manager who couldn't be relied upon for any useful advice, assistance, answers to other questions. Yet they, along with other managers, were on the on-call rotation. Only if the current on-call was someone who actually worked down in the weeds (shift lead), would you feel reassured for that given day/week of competent or tangible assistance. The manager finished a PHD, and sent their dissertation to their team to 'mire. But was far removed from the actual work, and I know without a doubt they'd struggle to action on even the more basic items of work we did. I remember them saying that they plan to pay minimum payments on their student loans, and given the amount that it is, they'll die without even a significant dent made against it.

No one with a 115 IQ has a problem understanding a bell curve. That is one standard deviation above the norm, which means he would be demonstrably smarter than an average person. Ergo, he was probably 95-105 IQ and lied about it to feel better.

He told me he scored 109 the first time he took the test, and took it three times before scoring 115, so his results were possibly skewed because he had practice taking the test.
