What if Incompetent + Nice never becomes Competent + Nice and they hold the same position that you do?


Although this model can apply to anyone, I was originally referring to clients.

If you have a client who is Incompetent + Nice and never becomes Competent + Nice, then either you need to do a better job of hand holding, or you may just have to settle for steady revenue that you have to work for. Either way, you both win.
