Human Capability - A Study of Individual Potential and its Application
Jaques and Cason conducted a three year study in which they discovered that individuals mature in capability within predictable patterns, a maturation process that continues throughout life. When an individual is heavily engrossed in work, he/she processes information in four ways which recur in a series of higher orders of information complexity. This hierarchy of mental processing methods corresponds with levels of individual capability and is congruent with levels of work complexity, explaining, at last, the very nature of managerial systems.
