How does killing the heads of terrorists groups actually help end terrorism?

Are the few individuals at the top that skilled in planning attacks that their respective #2 (or 3, 4, 5...) wouldn't be able to step in and execute as well? It just seems like we cut a head off and three more grow in it's place.

Terrorist organizations are complex.  They look for financing, they build networks of suppliers and friendly organizations, they recruit and train, they plan and execute on objectives.  These are complex actions that are more like that of a global company than what you might think.  Terrorism is complicated work, and as with most companies, if you get rid of the leadership, everyone else will have a lot harder time making an impact.
