Star Wars deals with the essential problem: Is the machine going to control humanity, or is the machine going to serve humanity?
...Darth Vader is a man taken over by a machine, he becomes a machine, and the state itself is a machine. There is no humanity in the state. What runs the world is economics and politics, and they have nothing to do with the spiritual life.
-Joseph Campbell

From those experiences he distills advice on how other leaders can transform their organizations. He stresses that people, not systems, are the key to implementation, and those who ignore good leadership practices will not bring about effective change.
