people on [[PERSONNEL|personnel]] posts in companies have followed a nineteenth century psychological approach that if a person can't do one [[POST|post]] he can be transferred to another post to which he is [[BETTER|better]] "adapted." "Talent," "native [[SKILL|skill]]," all sorts of [[FACTORS|factors]] are given. But if a person with all things considered in the first place is then found to do badly on that post, the [[SECOND|second]] think of nineteenth century personnel was to [[TRANSFER|transfer]] him to another post and yet another and another. The third think when again he fails is then to [[FIRE|fire]] him. Transferring under these circumstances is usually not only [[WRONG|wrong]] for the person but strews the [[ERROR|error]] all through the [[ORG|org]].
