Your Team Vote Won't Fix That Legacy Code Bomb

The Myth:
People believe that democratic leadership always leads to the best decisions. They think consensus and group input are essential for solving big problems.

Where It Fails:
In an energy company running old education systems, group decisions cause paralysis. You can’t vote on which 40-year-old system might crash next. Meetings drag on, no one takes charge, and technical debt grows until everything fails. The lights go out. (1/3)
