Famous management methods—"Six Sigma" and the "Theory of Constraints" (TOC)—have proven their effectiveness for two decades now, and the legendary "Lean Production" has been around for fifty!
But what if, in your situation, none of these methods work?
Maybe it’s worth creating something new based on them. That’s exactly what happened at AGI Institute—the institute of Eliyahu Goldratt, developer of the Theory of Constraints and author of the cult book "The Goal." Within its walls, they created a new methodology called "Velocity" ("speed"), combining the best elements of Lean Six Sigma and TOC.
And, following the tradition of "The Goal," they wrote a business novel in which the core ideas and principles of LSS, TOC, and Velocity are explained in simple, clear language using the example of managing a specific high-tech enterprise.
