Hi Aadhira – That is known as The Peter Principle:
“The Peter principle is a concept in management theory formulated by Laurence J. Peter in which the selection of a candidate for a position is based on the candidate’s performance in their current role, rather than on abilities relevant to the intended role. Thus, employees only stop being promoted once they can no longer perform effectively, and “managers rise to the level of their incompetence.” (Quote from Wikipedia). Regards. 🙂

Thanks for the enlightenment..
But what about the command positions that aren’t elected but nominated by custom, such as the son of king becoming the next king? – a hypothetical question indeed..

Aha…. and, being English, am well versed in the process of succession. Sadly, that is where power, greed, and family dynasty over-rule any sense of logic, and any sense of duty to the people!

That is SO true. And my country’s current political mess comes to mind when I read it.

Though it’s very apt for many countries’ political mess, it is well suiting for cases ranging from household command position to the command center of a country..
