In celebration of thirty years since the first publication of Eliyahu Goldratt’s essential business classic, HighBridge is proud to present an expanded audio edition of The Goal, featuring the original novel, plus case study reviews, and the author’s highly regarded essay “Standing on the Shoulders of Giants.” Also included is an audio archive exclusive featuring Eliyahu Goldratt in conversation about the significance—both personal and professional—of his breakthrough work.

Alex Rogo is the manager of a failing manufacturing plant who receives an ultimatum from corporate headquarters: Turn the situation around in three months or the plant will be scrapped. With help from a mysterious mentor, Rogo discovers a revolutionary new way to do business—a way for people in any field of endeavor to increase productivity, profitability, and personal fulfillment.

The story of Alex’s fight to save his plant contains a serious message for all managers in industry and explains the ideas which underline the Theory of Constraints (TOC) developed by Dr. Goldratt. First published in 1984, The Goal has changed how America does business.

Really got a kick out of listening to this fascinating and, probably for a lot of people relevant audiobook. I loved the life-balance aspect to the story, often this area is being completely overlooked, but is oh so important!

This was on an extended reading list for the Operations module of an MBA. If you want to understand the Operations principles this is an essential read and so much better than a text book.

excellent

works well in audiobook format. Great intro to the fundamentals of LEAN. The case study was more difficult to go through in audio format, would benefit from supporting documentation.

Great intro to lean
