A breakthrough solution is exposed when some unexpected events force Caroline and Paul, a married couple working for their family's retail business, to make a few small changes in the way things are done. A solution that propels the family's regional chain of stores into a very profitable, rapidly growing, international enterprise. If there is a hint of Jonah, from The Goal, reappearing in this novel, it is Henry, the soon-to-retire president and majority owner of the company who logically states that, "if you do not deal directly with the core problem, don't expect significant improvement."

She tries to survive in what feels like a heartless and uncaring bureaucracy and to work within a system where no one can get anything done without endless committees, paperwork, and approvals. One day, she is approached by a ragtag bunch of misfits who say they want to overthrow the existing order, to liberate developers, to bring joy back to technology work.

How can we apply technology to drive business value?

Through four years of groundbreaking research to include data collected from the State of DevOps reports conducted with Puppet, Dr. Nicole Forsgren, Jez Humble, and Gene Kim set out to find a way to measure software delivery performance - and what drives it - using rigorous statistical methods. This book presents both the findings and the science behind that research, making the information accessible for listeners to apply in their own organizations.

Disappointing. Here is a summary
- By V. Taras on 10-21-18
By: Jeffrey Liker, and others
Publisher's Summary
Since it was first introduced in the multi-million-copy best seller The Goal, Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt's Theory of Constraints (TOC) has emerged as one of the most flexible and effective approaches to management and problem solving in the corporate world. Now taught in business schools everywhere and successfully used in companies of all sizes around the world, TOC has changed the way a generation of professionals maximize profits and resources by focusing on and clearing the constraints that get in their way.
In Beyond The Goal, Dr. Goldratt elaborates on his profoundly influential theories in a straightforward, practical, and pragmatic presentation designed to help you put these powerful ideas to valuable use. Speaking with the brilliance and insight that has made him a sought-after teacher and top consultant, Dr. Goldratt addresses some of the most asked-about elements of understanding and applying TOC, including:
- The basic assumptions of TOC
- Why management assumptions must be changed to obtain lasting, bottom-line results
- What is necessary and sufficient to establish a foundation for future success
- The rules of operations, project management, and distribution
- How to implement TOC as a holistic approach to continuous improvement
Whether you're new to Dr. Goldratt's philosophy, or a TOC veteran looking for fresh strategies for turning turn concepts into consequences, Beyond The Goal makes it abundantly clear why joining the Theory of Constraints revolution has never been easier, or more important for your company and your career.

Best Book on Supply Chain
I read the original book and now this one. It is good primer on the areas of MRP, ERP, Logistics, Supply Chains and Software. Goldratt is very opinionated and passionate. I have spent 10 years being a consultant to many companies in the same fields and I can confirm that he is the very best in this speciality. He is the Peter Drucker, Tom Peters and Stevan Covey combined for the Supply Chain space. I wish audible.com would introduce more Supply Chain and Project Management books such as this one.

Foolish Error
I am such a big supporter of Eliyahu Goldratt and he is an exceptional person. However this audio book is nothing short of a disgrace, for a smart guy he has an egotistically blind spot that is just sad. He is a terrible terrible terrible narrator and makes a good message awful, I think buying this book in audio format would be a terrible error.

Sales pitch...
The audio book covers various examples and concepts of the goal, TOC, Critical Chain and concludes in an offer for consultants to help your company develop strategy alignment. It has an interesting dialog on complexity and how using the scientific method can help formalize the conflict (root cause) and overcome major obstacles (find the silver bullet). Fundamentally, it is a six hour sales pitch.

Ugh
The man is obviously quite bright. Brighter than me I'm sure. His talks apply to plant production - producing something requiring quality control like a lamp or an auto part. Not relevent to customer service based or web based or even entertainment based businesses (intellectual property, etc.). He seems to be convinced that he himself is the sole, self enthroned revolutionary without whose work the world would be doomed to its "old ways" prior to his "groundbreaking" theory of constraints - critical "chain"(path). I'm sorry but i just don't get all the hype. He seems to drone on like some religious leader looking to found his own industrial hyper-productive cult. But it's chatter chatter chatter. I couldn't get past the fourth hour. Was highly turned off by his self aggrandizing and back patting. Skip it.

Very Powerful Lecture on All Aspects of Management
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I am currently involved in a lean transformation of a small plant, it can be very challenging without guidance. This book really opened my eyes to a lot of "conflict clouds" within the fabric of my organization. The book is basic enough to be accessible, but powerful enough to get you thinking about your problems, and the holistic approach touches everything from sales to cost accounting to engineering.
What did you like best about this story?
Not so much a story as a lecture, but the material was engaging and informative, and the delivery was entertaining and amusing.
What about Eliyahu M. Goldratt’s performance did you like?
He had a tendency to alter his voice, even shouting at times to keep dry material exciting. Not everyone is a lean geek like I am, but this book was easy to follow and really shows how the things holding our organizations back are often conflicting goals. By reassessing our many conflicts we can reach a true consensus on the core conflict, and once that is removed the organization can achieve dramatic change.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
The book is very long, but I finished it in a few days.
Any additional comments?
I know that industrial engineering has come a long way since The Goal was released and Goldratt's "drum, buffer, rope" is a bit overly simple by modern standards, but many small mom and pop businesses are still way behind. Reviewing these classics is a great head start onto a lean journey. I just wish more people would be brave enough to put it into practice.

More of a Lecture than a book
Whilst there is good material in this recording it very quickly gets old hearing the presenter refer to diagrams/charts you can't see as he is presenting live in front of an audience here ... The initial guidance says there are files that can be downloaded with the PowerPoint slides: I can't find them and got no response when I emailed audible to ask for them.
If you like the late Dr Goldratt's self-assured delivery (i'm OK with it) you'll like this. For others a conventional book may be a better place to start

An excellent overview of the Theory of Constraints
What did you like most about Beyond the Goal?
Eliyahu gives an excellent talk on the principles of TOC and relates his talk expertly back to his books "The Goal" and "It's Not Luck". The books opened my eyes to the world of Business Improvement and this talk has cemented the principles in my head.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Most definitely. Eliyahu talks passionately about his topic which drew me in and made me never want to stop listening.
Any additional comments?
If you haven't read any of Eliyahu's books then this is an excellent introduction to his Theory of Constraints which I am completely convinced will make you want to read his books and addopt his methods of improving work flows. If you have already read his books then this talk is a great listen to cement the theories in your head and remind you of the guiding principles.

Story
A breakthrough solution is exposed when some unexpected events force Caroline and Paul, a married couple working for their family's retail business, to make a few small changes in the way things are done. A solution that propels the family's regional chain of stores into a very profitable, rapidly growing, international enterprise. If there is a hint of Jonah, from The Goal, reappearing in this novel, it is Henry, the soon-to-retire president and majority owner of the company who logically states that, "if you do not deal directly with the core problem, don't expect significant improvement."

Story
In this intriguing business novel, which illustrates state-of-the-art economic theory, Alex Rogo is a UniCo plant manager whose factory and marriage are failing. To revitalize the plant, he follows piecemeal advice from an elusive former college professor who teaches, for example, that reduction in the efficiency of some plant operations may make the entire operation more productive. Alex's attempts to find the path to profitability and to engage his employees in the struggle involve the listener; and thankfully the authors' economic models.
