The Goal (novel)
''The Goal'' is a management-oriented novel by Eliyahu M. Goldratt, a business consultant known for his Theory of Constraints. It was originally published in 1984 and has since been revised and republished. This book can be used for case studies in operations management, with a focus geared towards the Theory of Constraints, bottlenecks and how to alleviate them, and applications of these concepts in real life.〔(A summary of ''The Goal'' by Gower Publishing )〕 It is used in management colleges to teach students about the importance of strategic capacity planning and constraint management.
==Setting==
Like other books by Goldratt, ''The Goal'' is written as a piece of fiction. The main character is Alex Rogo, who manages a production plant owned by UniCo Manufacturing, where everything is always behind schedule and things are looking dire. At the beginning of the book, Bill Peach, a company executive, tells Alex that he has three months to turn operations at his plant around from being unprofitable and unreliable to being successful.〔(A chapter-by-chapter summary of ''The Goal'' )〕 His distant acquaintance, Jonah (a physicist), whom many believe represent Goldratt himself, helps him solve the company's problems through a series of telephone calls and short meetings. A second story line, which only occasionally intersects with the main topic of the book but to which concepts Jonah teaches are also applied, describes Alex's marital life.
