The Bottleneck of Time
In the clamorous corridors of a bustling corporate kingdom, the CEO faced a dilemma as common as it was elusive: the bottleneck of time.

She began a quest—delegating non-crucial tasks to her lieutenants and leveraging automated systems for routine decisions. This new operating method turned an 80-hour workweek into a 40-hour powerhouse of productivity. Suddenly, strategy sessions felt less like mad dashes for survival and more like orchestrations for legacy building.
