Every year, companies worldwide burn through $3 trillion on failed IT projects alone. That's not a typo-trillion with a T. It's more than the entire GDP of France, vanishing into the black hole of botched initiatives, abandoned rollouts, and strategic plans that never left the PowerPoint deck. Yet here's what's fascinating: the problem isn't lack of effort or intelligence. Walk into any Fortune 500 company and you'll find brilliant minds working themselves to exhaustion on projects destined to fail. The culprit? A fundamental disconnect between the people dreaming up strategy and those actually building it. Strategic planners envision organizational futures without understanding implementation requirements, while project managers execute without strategic context. It's like architects designing skyscrapers without consulting engineers-beautiful blueprints that collapse under their own weight.
