That sounds way too dictatorial to me.
They elected a NME that might have done a good job, but she had to leave. They had to appoint someone. She sucked. The exec board realized she sucked. They didn't let her go nuts. That sounds like they did exactly what they are supposed to do and learned in the process. If they would have a swarm of advisors watching over them and telling them what to do and what not, they wouldn't have learned their lesson.
Sometimes when you have to appoint someone in an off-cycle time, it's not who is best for the job, it's who will volunteer to do it. If there was no one else wanting to be NME, they didn't really have a choice.
