On this Star Wars Day of 2019, I decided to find a leadership book based on Star Wars. Fortunately, Amazon had one: Be More Vader: Assertive Thinking from the Dark Side by Christian Blauvett. Blauvett’s 2018 book has some good observations about the leadership style, principles, and assertiveness of the Sith.
As Blauvett points out, “Be More Vader provides the essential advice to help you succeed at work. It will enable you to follow in the footsteps of the Dark Lord of the Sith—even if you don’t possess the power of the dark side.”
Not surprisingly, many of these principles run counter to most of my own leadership philosophy and style, which is more based on Servant Leadership. In this post, I’ll offer Blauvett’s perspective then my own observations.
