Episode 449: TMBA449: The Peter Principle Revisited
Published 7 years, 8 months ago
Description
http://www.tropicalmba.com/peterprinciple/ On this week's episode, Dan and Ian are going to explore one of the philosophical concepts that they have been talking about increasingly on this show.
The Peter Principle was originally published by Laurence J. Peter in 1969. The basic premise is that every employee or member of an organizational hierarchy will tend to rise to their own "level of incompetence".
On today's podcast, we are talking about what this concept means for entrepreneurs, how it applies to us, how it applies to our businesses, and what we can learn from it.
We'll also share some strategies for what to do if you believe that you've reached your own capacity for growth.
