In many companies this is the psychology. Many managers feel they have to always be the ones who wield authority through knowing more than their charges, when in truth the idea of management - the one that's most effective - is to take advantage of and channel your workers' strengths to the benefit of the company. In this case Jeysie's superior[s] failed to see how good she was in terms of organization and efficiency, so the company suffers and can't make progress because her talents were not used to its best advantage.
