THE GOAL - by Eliyahu M Goldratt - It is probably first of its kind book in market that has a story connected to otherwise mundane and boring factory. It is a book that explains some very typical issues that can occur in any manufacturing facility. But the highlight of book lies in its inane knack to hold reader with some sort of invisible excitement. Some common words heard in corridors of factory like "bottleneck," "throughput," "inventory" are explained with dexterity. The much respected doctrine of "automation is key to success" has also been explained, from a very practical stand point. The godly character of Johan is the invisible light-house of this story and Alex Rogo holds the anchor throughout.
An interesting plot reveals management's decision to shut down a plant, if it does not show uptrend in three months.
It is a must read for all associates in factory environment. It gives new dimension to their observations and is sure to hit home somewhere.
