Is your most competent colleague actually the biggest risk to your team’s future success?
When someone is brilliant at their job, what exactly are the skills that get them promoted… and are those skills even relevant to the new role?
If a promotion is supposed to be a reward, why does it so often end up punishing everyone involved, including the person being promoted?

Could the real problem in your organisation right now be not incompetence at the bottom, but perfectly qualified people sitting one level too high?
For our Watch & Talk sessions, this video sparks discussion around leadership, workplace culture, career progression, organisational structure, and professional failure.
This one will make your team look very differently at the org chart on Monday morning.
Watch the video here (but it’s always more interesting to talk about it 😉):
