Your view on management is all wrong. As a manager, you're a leader, not a dictator. If you act like that you're doing it wrong. Know when an employee is right and admit it, reward them for their work and ideas. And this isn't close to a "manager and subordinate" thing; this is like the sales manager going to the warehouse and telling them what they can and can't do. He was one of the founders, don't forget that. Now saying that, yes you're right, it's activision, but bungie is the one accepting their sell out.
