==I guess she was promoted beyond her level of incompetence.==

A book, 'The Peter Principle' discussed this.

Peter Principle

n.

The theory that employees within an organization will advance to their highest level of competence and then be promoted to and remain at a level at which they are incompetent.

She's an anomaly to the Principle.
