Laurence Peter (1919-1990). The Peter Principle was expounded in the 1969 book of this name by Canadian educator, Laurence J. Peter. It states that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to their level of incompetence. They are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent. They then stay there.

If there is one chemical in our body which can impact our well-being and creative performance, it might just be cortisol. Cortisol is a natural hormone produced in our bodies with a number of functions, but one of the primary functions is to feelings of stress. This evolved hundreds of millions of years ago in order to protect us from danger. For example, when we feel stressed, our bodies release cortisol in order to allow more glucose to be used in the body, such as by our legs to run away from

It is not possible to think unpredictably by looking harder and longer in the same direction. When your attention is focused on a subject, only a few patterns dominate your thinking. These patterns produce predictable ideas no matter how hard you try. In fact, the harder you try, the stronger the same patterns become. If, however, you change your focus and combine your subject with something that is not related, different, unusual patterns are activated.

Documents are the backbone of enterprise operations, but they are also a common source of inefficiency. From buried insights to manual handoffs, document-based workflows can quietly stall decision-making and drain resources. For large, complex organizations, legacy systems and siloed processes create friction that AI is uniquely positioned to resolve.
