The Delbert Principle of Ineffective Workers


Motivational Power Quote

The Delbert Principle of Ineffective Workers
“The Dilbert Principle: The most ineffective workers are
systematically moved to the place where they can do
the least damage.”
Scott Adams, American Cartoonist

As I see it . . . . . . .

The Delbert Principle of ineffective workers

They can be in every walk of life . . . .

Sometimes there’s hired as a favor and nobody knows what they will do with them . . . . They are just there collecting money and taking up space for no good reason and without a real job or purpose.

People hide them in an organization so they don’t have to become accountable for them . . . . and make believe that they don’t exist.

For reasons beyond belief they get promoted . . . . and reach a higher level of being incompetent. People around them cover for them and blame other people for their mistakes and failures.

Over time they become a Teflon executive . . . . and one day they are put into a position where they’re way over their head.

What happens next . . . .  the company finds themselves being managed out of business.

The Delbert Principle of ineffective workers  . . . . Is being moved forward in an organization where they should have never been hired in the first place. Or where they should have been terminated but someone always seems to step in and cover for them.
