Swimming vs Splashing: in Water and in Management


A swimmer who makes big splashes in the water is not a good swimmer.

An executive who boasts about their management style is not a competent executive.

The birds that splash the most are pigeons and sparrows. They can't swim at all.

Executives who boast and swagger should brush up on the Dunning Kruger hypothesis. This will help them improve.

Yet, pigeons will never learn to swim.

  1. "Sink or Swim" is not a binary choice. There is the intermediate category: "Splash". The more incompetent the swimmer, the more they splash. Ditto for managers.
