A simple retelling of Eli Goldratt's great business novel, The Goal, with guidance, commentary and examples to help readers from all sectors, not just manufacturing.** Praise for THE GOAL retold (pre-publication) ** "I loved this distilled version. I read "The Goal" years ago so I appreciated being able to refresh myself of it's concepts quickly rather than going to the full book and trying to pick them out." - M, Head of Software Development, Scotland "You did well to leave just enough of the character's personalities, and the drama, so it reads like a very short novel / play rather than a dry instruction booklet or - worse - one of those cheap rip-off summaries that keep popping up on amazon." - G, Programmer, New Zealand "[My boss and I] read your book and we've now settled on measures that will begin to expose our bottleneck." - L, development manager, Scotland "A great way of making Goldratt's TOC more accessible. I must highlight your brilliant insight: you "warned" when the content gets harder with the "Deep Mud" signs and helped people who don't understand production environments with [your commentary and explanation]. These two things will help a lot those who are not familiar with a production line! - B, Industrial Engineering Student, Brazil This little book was hand-crafted, with love and care, over many months, by Clarke Ching, author of Rolling Rocks Downhill - Accelerate Agile using Goldratt's TOC
