Despite the failure of Force choking Admiral Ozzel to improve performance by the Imperial Fleet, Vader Force choked Captain Needa after his failure to capture the Millennium Falcon shortly thereafter. In the second case, the Death Star wasn’t even completed before the Rebels managed to destroy it again. And the Empire’s response? Build a bigger, newer Death Star to serve as a target for the Rebel Alliance. After it was built, the Death Star only successfully completed one mission before it was destroyed by the Rebels. The Galactic Empire devoted years, an enormous amount of money, and an enormous amount of manpower to building the Death Star. Darth needs to learn that while it may be fun to kill his lackeys, it may be hard to find replacements to pick up the slack! This organizational chaos was undoubtedly key to the Rebels ability to escape in mass numbers, even as they flew perilously close to the Imperial Fleet.

Instead, he threw the Imperial Fleet into organizational disarray as countless numbers of officers were suddenly thrust into new roles and responsibilities without the opportunity to learn them. Rather than simply kill Admiral Ozzel, Vader should have attempted to direct him to a course of action that corrected his error. First of all, mistakes are inevitable - especially in times where quick decisions are needed to be made on incomplete information. This swift, decisive punishment of failure is a huge error of management. Captain Piett, Ozzel’s second-in-command, was then promoted to Admiral and given command of the Imperial Fleet. Enraged by this error, Darth Vader used the Force to choke Admiral Ozzel to death. However, because Admiral Ozzel took the Imperial Fleet out of lightspeed too close to the Hoth system, the Rebel Alliance was able to detect the Imperial approach and quickly begin its defense. In an early part of the "Empire Strikes Back," the Empire attempted to wipe out the Rebel Alliance once and for all in the Battle of Hoth. Despite his decades of scheming, Palpatine’s organization barely lasted a day after he was gone. A galaxy-wide organization was defeated simply by taking out two key individuals.

As the events of the movie make clear, the deaths of the Emperor and Darth Vader pretty much eliminated any opportunity for succession. Anytime your future plans depend on getting a rising star from a rival organization to join your team, you know that you have some serious institutional issues. By the time "Return of the Jedi" rolls around, the Emperor’s only advisor is Darth Vader, and his distrust in his organization is so complete that his only plan for succession is a desperate attempt to poach Luke Skywalker from the Rebel Alliance and get him to join his organization. In "A New Hope," the Galactic Senate is disbanded in favor of regional governors hand-selected by the Emperor. There is a constant we see starting with "A New Hope" and running through to the end of "Return of the Jedi" of the Emperor consolidating more and more power into his own hands and that of his right-hand man, Darth Vader.
