Early Reviewers

Unlock the secret anatomy of failed projects with Project Mismanagement — a ruthless, satirical guide for every adult who's watched deadlines pass and budgets burn.

Step into the hilarious and uncomfortably familiar world of doomed project delivery. This sharply observed, deadpan expose drags the reader through the entire project lifecycle, exposing each misstep and misguided triumph along the way. Centered on Project Lighthouse — the ultimate fictional shipwreck built from scraps of reality — Franz uses biting wit to reveal the pitfalls that no business ever plans for but almost every team repeats, weaving the satire together with real-world case studies from the Sydney Opera House to Healthcare.gov.
