NEW TITLE
TOC has been successfully applied in almost every area of human endeavor, from industry to healthcare to education. And while Eli Goldratt is indeed a scientist, an educator and a business leader, he is first and foremost a philosopher; some say a genius. He is a thinker who provokes others to do the same. Often characterized as unconventional, and always stimulating—a slayer of sacred cows— Dr. Goldratt exhorts his readers to examine and reassess their lives and business practices by cultivating a different perspective and a clear new vision. In his latest book, The Choice, Goldratt once again presents his thought provoking approach, this time through a conversation with his daughter Efrat, as he explains to her his fundamental system of beliefs.

Isn't It Obvious?
A Business Novel on Retailing Using the Theory of Constraints
Eliyahu M. Goldratt with Ilan Eshkoli and Joe BrownLeer
THIS BOOK DOES FOR RETAILING WHAT GOLDRATT’S INTERNATIONAL BEST-SELLER, “THE GOAL” DID FOR MANUFACTURING.
A breakthrough solution is exposed when some unexpected events force Caroline and Paul, a married couple working for their family’s retail business, to make a few small changes in the way things are done. A solution that propels the family’s regional chain of stores into a very profitable, rapidly growing, international enterprise. If there is a hint of Jonah, from THE GOAL, reappearing in this novel, it is Henry, the soon-to-retire president and majority owner of the company who logically states that, “if you do not deal directly with the core problem, don’t expect significant improvement.” Eli Goldratt’s Theory of Constraints is woven throughout this book but answers are not handed to you. The reader, along with the characters in the book, work through the process together to discover solutions.
The elegant but simple solutions give the reader that sensation that followers love about Goldratt: “Ah-ha! Now I get it!” And that’s when Goldratt says: “Isn’t It Obvious?”

“Finally, a practical handbook for leaders… one to set on your desk and use, to go back to over and over, to help you navigate the terrain to success.” -John Shook, Former Manager, Toyota [The first American kacho (manager) for Toyota in Japan]
The Leadership Roadmap is not just for CEOs, CFOs and others at the executive level, it is also for people in human resources or project development, the plant manager or first line supervisor, it is for anyone who shares a strong commitment to the foundational premise of integrating the leadership of people, lean transformation and innovation systems. The Leadership Roadmap is a practical resource that will foster a new generation of “roving leaders,” committed team members who are willing to step up and fill a void, who lead by asking questions that trigger positive change rather than simply giving orders. These new leaders will understand that while the framework for achieving success is simple, the implementation can be complex and daunting, requiring a firm and enduring dedication to renewal, and a step by step guide to show them the way.
