The Diaper Principle is like a “poo-tastic” metaphor for how some workplaces handle mistakes. 🩴💩 It’s when management, in response to one person’s blunder, makes everyone wear a metaphorical diaper to prevent future mishaps. In other words, instead of dealing with the real issue, they make everyone suffer the consequences of one person’s mess!
