The Peter Principle Revised

The Peter Principle Revised

People will rise within an organization to their level of fear and no further.

This is the point at which leadership, courage, risk taking and innovation are overcome by anxiety. The result is these individuals end up in jobs they can no longer handle and their work becomes less and less relevant to the company’s growth and success. Their focus upon managing the status quo a way to hiding from the emotional labor required to lead the organization forward. The awareness of how their anxiety is paralyzing their efforts is the first step changing these results. Their development of a passionate desire for better results is essential to create the motivation to move through their anxiety and lead.
