An example of someone who has the other three cores—but not capabilities—would be someone who is honest and caring and produces the results necessary to be promoted to a new level of responsibility that he doesn’t have the competence to handle. This is the Peter Principle in action—of promoting people to the level of their incompetence. If he simply relies on the skills that got him to where he is—if he isn’t involved in constantly learning, growing, and developing new skills—he won’t have what’s necessary to succeed in his new situation.
