This theory covers the principle that you have some people who are incompetent but get promoted anyway due to arrogance, self-belief and ignorance of their own capabilities and limitations. Their self-belief comes across as confidence and skill during short interview exposure where real skills are not challenged or tested thoroughly. Ultimately they become a manager. They try to exert control over all future situations, despite a lack of informed knowledge.
These employees float up to the top of an organisation, repeating the same process. and this is why there is a layer of shit often floating at the top, underneath which capable employees become exhausted and disgruntled.
This in essence is the Polystyrene Brown Management Theory.
It gains its name from some simple principles. If placed in water, Polestyrene will float to the top, pushing everything out of its way to get there, where it refuses to sink, is bad for the environment and is generally just shit. Inhibiting the necessary light needed for employee growth underneath where they are left in a less oxygen-rich environment, unable to get the necessary straws to aid breathing, due to the budget cuts imposed by said Polystyrene Brown Management.
The environment that the employee is left to work in starts to turn brown, and everywhere they look they feel they are surrounded by shit.

I don’t know where to start but how about here you so sexy in every way. The way you controlling everything moving is SOo0oO hot. I loved watching you work. You show them how it’s done. We work hard we play hard.
I know we may not communicate well via text but please! Understand I went through dark aileys of depression and I’m just emerging from its shadows. Me being selfless says that’s still no excuse. Sorry to keep you waiting in suspense. I have my reasons. I was withholding my urges because I was under surveillance by 5-oh. (Ef all them hating ass b*tches Seriously F them. They ruined it for us. Bunch of crabs in a barrel. Internalized racism and misogynists. Tried to get rid of me. They don’t know nothing about love. Real love. Them petty b*tches always with the drama. Don’t know how to speak up or boss up. Only causing hostility and a disservice. Nobody defended me. They all turned against me. Between those m-rats & golden retrievers Idk what’s worse a bitch or a snitch. It’s Boss & HBIC here to run tings. They thought they’d take the cake and eat it too huh? tuh. They were all rat-at-ta-tas & lazy bones. The hustle has always been sold separately. I’m sorry to say this but thank god for the pandemic it cancelled a lot of them.) I’LL LOVE YOU UNTIL THE END OF TIME

A wild Karen will normally prey on a Manager and proceed to scold them to get what they want from them.
