@thedarkhorsehq: "A bad system will beat a good person every time." W. Edwards Deming said that, and it explains half the careers I've ever watched. Think about the best person you ever worked with. The one who fixed everything, carried the dead weight, never asked for credit. Where are they now? Nine times out of ten they're gone, or they're in the same chair they were in five years ago while somebody who does half the work got promoted over them. And everybody blames the person. "They didn't play the game." No. A system that promotes the loudest voice in the room, punishes honest feedback, and lets a manager take credit for work they never touched is working exactly the way it was built. So pick a side. The best people keep losing because they're not good enough, or because the building was designed to lose them. You don't get to say both. Which one is it? Person or system?

It is called failing up. I watched it happen for years. All I did was make my supervisors look great until I stopped then I got let go. After 10 years.

Literally dealing with this today. I don't want to go to another job, but if you don't do something about the bad employee, I will leave. Just to get the response 'I dont want you to do that. I can tell you're passionate about your job.' Then fix it. I'm giving the opportunity to fix it. I already know it won't happen.

You are absolutely speaking truth. When the culture is historically rotten, it cannot be changed. They have it like they want it, and you thinking that you will “change” anything is absurd.

It’s often not the best people who fail, but the systems that fail to support them. Good leadership means building an environment where great work gets recognised and rewarded.

Literally dealing with this issue today. You can not change the top from the bottom/middle . I’m stepping out on my own and hope I don’t fail.

These are the words I’ve been searching for…. I have taken a huge leap of faith this week choosing to walk away from people and a team I care deeply for because of the system. I’m scared as hell but nothing was going to change unless I chose to change. I wasn’t willing to change who I have become as a leader so now I change and find a find a different system to share my leadership with.
