This is an appealing narrative without evidence.

How does the author know Marias make up the majority of most companies? Where's the data supporting that claim?

It may be true - it sounds plausible to those of us who've been a Maria in the salt mines of a dysfunctional company.

It appeals to us to think we're the hidden gems the company needs to invest in.

Something being appealing doesn't make it true, though, even if you can tell a just-so story about it.
