"The Peter Principle"
"The Peter Principle" seems to especially apply here. Cf. book by the same name, quite popular in business circles. The premise of the principle is this: often an individual rises to his own level of incompetence. When rising in rank becomes the chief goal, in spite of lack of corresponding competence, an individual is soon revealed as incompetent at that level.
Anybody else read it and see its application to this topic?
