The Peter Principle
This week, we ask ourselves if we've reached our professional peaks and if we now fall foul to the Peter Principle, having tipped into our levels of incompetency.
Amongst many other clever things, Jono applies the principle to Football Management.
Tommy gives his insight to how relevant it is managing at the very top of a business.
And I tell how my capacity to teach stuff is severely limited by exactly the kind of incompetence the Peter Principle is based on.
Where do you feel you or maybe more interestingly, where do those around you sit within the Peter Principle?
Here are some useful links if you want to find out more about some of the bits we discussed:
- The Peter Principle was first proposed by Canadian educator, Laurence J. Peter . In one of his books, he also said that "noblest of all dogs is the hot dog; it feeds the hand that bites it."
- Creator of The Paula Principle is Tom Schuller
- The Dilbert Principle
- The Generalised Peter Principle sketch
- #1 Rule of Indoor Games
- The BBC Peter Principle sitcom with Jim Broadbent on YouTube
Please consider giving us a review or subscribing to our podcast on your podcast player. It really helps.
Please also consider putting in a pre-order for Jono's Sketchplanations book: Big Ideas, Little Pictures. Out very soon.
We'd love to hear your stories of any experience with The Peter Principle.

Creativity through Music Composition
Music.
It can be a very personal thing. It can be most powerful when shared.
It's on the radio, in our headphones on the commute, at the gym, on TV ads, in our favourite movies... what would the world be without it?
And what would the world be without the people who create it?
This episode, we interrogate singer, songwriter, producer, and friend of the show Franc Cinelli to find out how he goes about creating new music.
Where does it come from?
What are his processes?
And how does creating music relate to other areas of creativity in our lives?
if you're a regular listener you may or may not be aware that it's Franc's music we use on the podcast.
Most notably:
Driver - as our intro music.
The Impossible Breaks Free - as our transition into the episode's sketch-specific discussion
Julius Play His Winning Ace - (my favourite) at the end of the Listener Comments that round off each episode.
Find his music here on Apple or Spotify
Here's some good stuff to check out that we reference in the podcast:
Short Film: From Somewhere - Franc talks about his music making
Axis of Awesome - songs that use the same 4 chords
Steal Like An Artist - Book by Austin Kleon : 10 things nobody told you about being creative
And what would an episode of this podcast be without referring to another of Jono's sketches: 3,500 lifetime reads
As always, we'd love to know your thoughts about our discussion and you can email us here
