Even if the person who gets to the top is not competitive, there is 
competition involved, it's just not as overt. That person got there 
either because he forced his way to the top (not necessarily because of 
competition, per se) or because he performed better in relevant areas 
and was awarded the job...

If you're destroying your competition, or stacking the odds in your 
favor by cheating, you are being anti-competitive. At that point, you 
are not competing, you are simply following your whim. But, it does 
appear outwardly as overt competition.
