«Le principe de Peter» is the satirical essay by Laurence J. Peter and Raymond Hull, published by Le Livre de Poche in paperback (192 pages, in French).
The book presents the Peter Principle, according to which every employee tends to rise until reaching their level of incompetence; hence many bosses occupy positions that exceed their real ability. With irony, it invites readers to question management and to ask whether one has likewise reached one's ceiling.
The original title is The Peter Principle (1969). The French translation is by France-Marie Watkins, with illustrations by Ronald Searle.
For readers of business management, organizational psychology and social satire who want to understand why promotion does not always reward competence.
Laurence Johnston Peter was a Canadian educator and "hierarchiologist" who is best known to the general public for the formulation of the Peter principle.
