The Galactic PM War: Why Darth Vader Was the Ultimate Waterfall Manager (And Why the Jedi Failed at Scaling Agile)
The Eternal Battle for Project Supremacy... In a galaxy not so far away - specifically, in every corporate boardroom on Earth a war is raging.

You have the dream. The flicker of an idea for your own business, your own path, your own freedom. You've read the inspiring stories, maybe even sketched out a few concepts on a napkin. But then… nothing. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months. The idea remains just an idea. You find yourself trapped in a cycle of endless research, "what-if" scenarios, and the paralyzing fear of taking that first concrete step.
