=== Pyramids or hierarchical === A [[hierarchical organization|hierarchy]] exemplifies an arrangement with a [[leadership|leader]] who leads other individual members of the organization. This arrangement is often associated with the basis that there are enough to imagine a real pyramid, if there are not enough stone blocks to hold up the higher ones, gravity would irrevocably bring down the monumental structure. So one can imagine that if the leader does not have the support of his subordinates, the entire structure will collapse. Hierarchies were [[satire|satirized]] in ''[[Peter principle|The Peter Principle]]'' (1969), a book that introduced ''hierarchiology'' and the saying that "in a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence."
