After spending quite some time in industry and many evenings in Bangalore traffic, I seem to see a simile –
Progress made (Career growth achieved) in a given time depends on the ability of the vehicle (person) in front of you rather than your vehicle’s (own) ability.
To give an example, an Auto Rickshaw behind a Mercedes has a greater chance to realize its potential compared to a Mercedes behind an Auto Rickshaw.
Interestingly, the solution is also in Bangalore traffic –
If the vehicle (person) in front of you is not giving you way despite of you honking & giving signals (giving feedback in reviews), it may be its (his) lack of power/maneuverability (capability/flexibility). In that case you need to take risk, based on your vehicle’s ability (own capability), to change lane (discipline/department/company) and overtake.
