In a business sense, it usually means a new employee is not quite keeping up with the 'learning curve' required to perform a particular job. In other instances it would mean 'off the pace' or 'behind schedule'. The origin of the phrase refers to the statistical bell shaped curve also called the normal probability distribution; where to be 'behind the curve' is to be analogously in area of the graph to the left of the bell curve, to be 'ahead of the curve' analogously in the area of the graph to the right of the bell curve.

What is polar wandering?
Polar wandering refers to the movement of the Earth's magnetic poles over long periods of time.

By studying polar wandering, scientists can understand the history and evolution of the Earth's magnetic field.
What is polar displacement?
Polar displacement. I think what your referring to if we are talking in a geological sense is actually called polar wandering and it is the apparent movement of the north and south poles over geological time however the poles are actually not the objects moving it is the continental landmasses under plate tectonics moving the land under the poles. The poles do move slightly before they reverse however plate tectonics is the main cause of polar wandering.
