Have you ever had a boss who simply didn't get it? You know, the type who had no vision, no focus, no clue?

Many bosses find themselves in leadership positions without ever having consciously made the choice to become a leader, let alone a great leader. 

The 'Peter Principle', (named after it's originator L. Peter)  states that in modern organizations, most bosses rise to the level of their least competence, like the specialist (e.g. accountant, engineer, lawyer etc.) who is so good at their craft that they get promoted to a management position in 'charge of people' without having mastered any real leadership skills. And then they bomb. It's not their fault, they were promoted into the position with little or no training or mentoring...it's sink or swim.
