22 management threshold
Gen Mgtan outmoded term for a level of seniority in an organization which somebody cannot surmount. The management threshold is reached by an employee who has risen to a certain level in an organization and seems unable to rise any farther.

Failure to surmount the management threshold can be caused by lack of opportunities for advancement, lack of ambition, or lack of skills or ability. -
