The other day, I read „The goal“, a novel about improving a production plant in an unconventional way. Now, I followed up with „Beyond the goal“, a collection of recordings from the author.

It might be me, but I really enjoy these recordings. The „book“ is full of anecdotes, rants and little stories. In only 8 chapters I was getting more background about process improvements, system thinking and theory of constraints.

Any other after dinner coffee people? Or am I the only one aging before my time?

@RangerRick @bookstodon @duanetoops for me, caffeine was just one part for better sleep.

Only after darkening and silencing the bed room and avoiding screens for at least an hour before bed my sleep improved massively.

What to change? - What to change to? - How to change?

Have you ever heard of these questions? Not? Then it is time for another book on your shelf. If you know „The Phoenix Project“, you might like the format of „The goal“ from Eliyahu M. Goldratt.

It’s a super interesting novel about a plant that is in trouble and how it avoids to get closed.

My Book backlog is getting empty. Only 6 to go and 3 of them are trivia. I would love to have more readings in:

  • business
  • engineering
  • agile work
  • psychology
  • open source
  • science fiction

For further reference. I am a fan of Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett, Gene Kim, Marianne Belotti, Teresa Torres, Jim Kwik and Sergej Lukuanenko.

Please feel free to recommend titles, authors, courses and other material.

Thank you, a lot, in advance.
