Maybe worth asking
An unsurprising article on the Peter Principle. Nothing new, but the terminology stirred up a testable hypothesis.
Our research suggests that companies are largely aware of the Peter Principle. Because workers value promotion above and beyond a simple increase in salary, firms may not want to rid themselves entirely of promotion-based incentives. However, strategies that decouple a worker’s current job performance from his or her future career potential can minimise the costs of the Peter Principle.Decouple. Evocative word. What's the best way to decouple the Peter Power of meritocracy? Family. In a family-owned company everyone knows that the top management positions will stay in the family. In a hereditary monarchy everyone knows that the top positions will stay in the family. Top management is NOT AN ASPIRATION, which means everyone outside the family can relax and do their proper jobs. This should be a testable hypothesis. Facts: SKILLS AND STATUS ARE INNATE AND PERMANENT. The best politicians have been politicians from birth. Meritocracy is a specific reversal and destruction of the basic facts of genetics.
