Administrative incompetence was when an administrator was unable to perform their job duties effectively.
Doctor Arthur Coleman was removed from the starship posting he held prior to the Camus II expedition after committing "flagrant medical blunders", as well as administrative incompetence, leading Dr. Leonard McCoy to question "James T. Kirk"'s 2269 assignment of Coleman to the treatment of "Janice Lester", rather than McCoy. (TOS: "Turnabout Intruder")
