Somewhat relevant is the Gervais Principle. This Principle is based on the idea that a corporate pyramid is topped by “sociopaths,” has “losers” as a foundation, and a culture of ladder-climbing “clueless” between the two:
Sociopaths, in their own best interests, knowingly promote over-performing losers into middle-management, groom under-performing losers into sociopaths, and leave the average bare-minimum-effort losers to fend for themselves.
It’s not a very rigorously investigate principle, though it matches well with my professional experiences.
