The Goal: A Process of Ongoing Improvement by Eliyahu M. Goldratt, written with Jeff Cox, presents key ideas from the fields of management, operations, and organizational thinking through a narrative that follows a factory manager facing an urgent business crisis. As production targets are missed and the future of the plant is threatened, the story unfolds around practical questions of efficiency, bottlenecks, and decision-making under pressure. Through everyday workplace challenges, the book introduces the Theory of Constraints and explores continuous improvement, systems thinking, and the complexity of real-world processes. Blending a clear storyline with analytical insight, the book has become a foundational work in management literature and is widely read by managers, engineers, and readers interested in business strategy and process improvement.
