Promoted to the level of their incompetence! How common is this? Actually, it's quite a natural process. Someone who has been competent in a role often finds themselves promoted. There will come a point, unless they are conscious, continuous learners, where they will end up in a role for which they aren't competent, and labour laws and the way management work mean that once promoted someone can't be demoted again.
