Product Description
In his phenomenal bestseller "The Goal", Eliyahu M. Goldratt introduced a radical concept known as the Theory of Constraints. Now taught in hundreds of business schools, and successfully used in thousands of companies, Goldratt's "TOC" has emerged as one of the most powerful approaches to operational improvements of all time. In "Beyond the Goal", Goldratt elaborates on his profoundly influential theories in a straightforward, practical, and pragmatic manner. In his only non fiction retail audio, Goldratt discusses how to implement his ideas and addresses some of the most asked-about elements, 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; and how to implement TOC as a holistic approach to continuous improvement.

 Pure genius April 29, 2008
This guy is a stinkin' genius. The concepts he lays out in this book make so much sense. I've already lent it out, and can't wait to get it back to listen to it again. He finds a way to lay out some pretty deep thoughts on TOC, but makes them easy to understand. I am constantly using some of his ideas in my meetings specifically around the number of metrics needed and changing the rules of business. The only problem I have is getting the rest of the company to understand it.
Excellent tool for increasing your understanding of TOC January 7, 2008
I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of TOC. He really explains the 'why' along with some of the history leading up to The Goal and everything that followed. I plan to listen to it a few more times, because I'm sure I missed 90% of what he really meant the first time through (but still extremely valuable!).
 Broad & insightful August 10, 2007
Opening with a tour-de-force of insightful simplicity, Beyond The Goal goes on to explore many aspects of business activity with Dr. Goldratt's custom disciplined thinking. Though I have not come through his excellent speaking with a clear understanding of the Theory Of Constraints, I heard many other ideas and had a pleasant time doing so. He covers a straight-forward process for implementing TOC within an hesitant organisation, as well as providing a brilliant technique for validating any effort to apply new technology in business.
A clear explanation May 14, 2007
This e-book reminds us Goldratt's literary style: clear, brief and precise.
After reading/listening to this lecture, I fell like I could run any facility in the world far better than the current management does.
This author delivers such a clear vision that by the moment we close the book we could train an audience on this subject.
Excellent value March 21, 2007

This is my first, but won't be my last, experience with Coach in a Box. Dr. G. is in his usual form (obviously speaking to a live audience) but this material, in this form, is probably not for those uninitiated to TOC. An outstanding supplement to William Dettmer's Systems book on TOC.
