 Good read for school November 21, 2009

I had to purchase this book to read for a business class at school. It was interesting, but not my favorite type of book.
 I'm glad this was required reading November 14, 2009

This book was required for a business class I had, and I'm very happy for it. What a great alternative to reading textbooks, and I can say I retained more information about business operations and business in general than if I had to read from a textbook. Kudos to my professor!
Makes you think and reconsider some "truths" October 17, 2009

Interesting and at times entertaining "business novel", which presents TOC (Theory of Constraints) in an easy to swallow format. The goal of a business - which is to make money - is broken down in three components (Increase throughput; Reduce inventory; Decrease operating expenses), and the implementation tackled one by one. Along the way flaws of conventional accounting and business practices are exposed (efficiency, cost), and better measurements introduced. I was expecting a plug for time driven ABC (Activity Based Costing), but that didn't happen. Icing on the cake are the last few chapters dealing with fundamental leadership questions (What to change?; What to change to?; How to cause change?). The big emphasis throughout is to get to the right questions to ask to address the root cause of each problem that is presented.
