Profile Books The Peter Principle: Why Things Always Go Wrong: As Featured on Radio 4

Boken gav mig strukturerade tankar på ett humoristiskt sätt kring ett fenomen jag funderat länge på när det gäller vilka som blir chefer.....

Interessante, è piccino e si legge in fretta anche se il lessico a volte è complesso per uno straniero che legge in inglese

The book should be essential for anyone interested in a managerial position.

This isn't a new publication and I actually bought this copy for a friend, having read it myself some years ago. It's an amusing look at how organisations work and how there there is a logical explanation for the gradual accumulation of incompetency that often seems to characterize established bureaucratic structures. The basic principle is perfectly straightforward and is sure to ring bells in your own experience. Further into the book, however, the author gets into certain 'embellishments' of the fundamental Principle and provides strategies for avoiding its worse effects, or indeed to avoid falling foul of them yourself. Well worth a read!

A book everyone should get familiar with. Your ego may have put you in a position you are not ready or are incapable of being successful at. This book will help you know if that's true.
