The Peter Principle is basically a person is promoted to their highest level of competence,then given another promotion in which they are incompetent.They stay at this level,this is the reason for big companies to have many Vice Presidents in a particular position,they are all incompetent.If you ever find this management structure,ask for help with the the most junior person on that level,that person might a be competent individual and will either be promoted or leave the company if the person in the position above him has maxed his competence level.
