- OhMeadhbh 3y agoI was going to comment on this thread but realized I had reached my level of incompetence at explaining things to other people on the internet.
- jmholla 3y agoI do not see your verbiage on that page. Can you point me to it? Edit: You seem to be referring to this quote of yours: > Why else would someone get promoted "until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent" if one's competence increases with a promotion? My response explained why your leaps in logic don't make sense. That line just means there's a point at which their skills won't apply. Not that every rung above results in reduced competence. You can be better and better and then worse and the Peter Principle would still be applicable. The Peter Principle is just about the changing competencies as one rises and how one hits a wall.
- Jimmc414 3y agoYou make valid points, and your interpretation is likely a more accurate interpretation of the Peter Principle.
