Jolicoeur B: The Constraint Loop

The Constraint Loop

Why Organizations Get Slower As They Scale - And What To Do About It

The Scale-Up Paradox

Engineering (R0)

J. Paulo Davim

Research Advances in Industrial Engineering

This book positions operational leadership where it deserves to be: as a separate domain of business management and the prime driver for consistent lasting business success.

Operational leadership is a top management job - delegating it equals abdication from accountability for business results.

To do this task well (which is hard and difficult work) business leaders must do five things right:

1) Set one single operational goal (not many KPIs or scorecard items),

2) Define constraint focused operational plans (not by top-down planning, but giving each unit its own, specific operational plan),

3) Meticulously lead the execution of each operational plan,

4) Adjust each unit's plan in agile operational sprints,

5) Lead execution of Plan-Execute-Check cycles for each unit and the development of strong culture of operational excellence.

Lead your business to operational excellence with five things done right

With this book, the author presents a book which is not aimed at Kanban specialists, but at people on their first steps with Kanban. It deliberately supports and focuses on topics relevant for the introduction to the method. 

It is intended to provide an introduction to this wonderful method, which goes back to the work of David Anderson. The focus is on traceability and comprehensibility. Thus the book offers an ideal companion for the first steps in the implementation of Kanban. 

This book is based on the content of the Kanban Professional I certification of ITEMO / ICO-CERT. It covers the entire examination material. The mentioned organizations were not involved in the development of this book. It is an independent contribution to the topic.

Understanding Kanban in a Knowledge-based Context and Implementing it in the Company

Your First Successes with Kanban

Submerged drops a newly hired IT leader into the deep end of a bank merger, forcing them to navigate competing technology platforms, organisational loyalties, executive politics and a transformation timetable that keeps getting harder.

As two banks struggle to become one, decisions about systems quickly become decisions about people, careers and culture. When a major technology failure raises the stakes, assumptions that once seemed obvious begin to unravel.

Along the way, practical approaches to assessing capability, integrating organisations and making better technology decisions emerge naturally from the pressure of getting things wrong and learning in real time.

A business novel about leadership, technology and what really happens when organisations are forced to change.

For readers of The Phoenix Project, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, and The Goal.

A Business Novel on Leading Through Change

subMERGED

Three thousand hours.

Sixty-seven thousand in gross commission. Forty-one thousand net. About thirteen dollars and seventy-three cents an hour.

Wade Roberts is at the end of year three in real estate, and that's what he has to show for it. His wife runs an ICU. His daughters are seven and five. His father - the hardest worker he ever knew - died eighteen months ago, and the line Wade can't get out of his head is the one his father always said: work can wait, family can't.

Then Wade meets Terry Bass. She runs a real estate practice Monday through Thursday, is home by four, and clears more in a year than most agents will see in a decade. At a continuing-education class, she asks him one question and he can't answer it.

What follows is a year of Wade learning to ask that question on himself. What he loses to bad leads. What he loses to grinding. What he loses to dinners he meant to be home for. And what comes back when he stops working the way the industry trains him to work.

Home for Dinner is a novel about the real estate business, written for the people in it. It's about the work no one teaches - the work that determines whether the rest of it pays. About the constraint at the center of every solo practice, every brokerage, every team. About what changes when an agent stops chasing volume and starts asking who they're actually trying to serve.

Read it because you've been Wade. Or read it because you don't want to be.

"These people are real. These people are absolutely real. I'm going to require my agents to read this." - Tammy H., Broker/Owner · Hamilton, MT

"Nobody in this industry wants to admit that we go through this. Everybody wants it to look like roses on top." - Megan V., Broker/Owner · Osseo, MI

"Critical Chain," a gripping fast-paced business novel, does for Project Management what Eli Goldratt's other novels have done for Production and Marketing. Dr. Goldratt's books have transformed the thinking and actions of management throughout the world.

A Business Novel

Critical Chain

Change can be hard. It is often difficult to conceive performing tasks in a different order, in a different place, at a different time, or in a different manner altogether. And this is only for the individual. When we talk about organizational change the difficulty increases exponentially with each individual that is added to the equation.

This book uses as its basis a fable - the story is not untrue, but it is not fact either. It is a story in which the group dynamics are real, the problems are valid, and the solutions legitimate. It asks you to consider a complex environment with multiple classes interacting between functional units with requirements that are perceived as exclusive and unique, and personalities that reinforce presumed boundaries. It asks you to follow along as all these individuals work together using the basics of four quality methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, Theory of Constraints, and Business Process Reengineering) to address the problems they face, discover solutions together, and move forward in their continuous performance improvement journey.

"Lean Acres is fantastic in its appeal and innovative in its writing style. Jim Bowie introduces an amazing convention by using talking animals on a farm ("Lean Acres Farm") to represent "real" stakeholders and teach Strategy and Process Improvement methodologies (Balanced Scorecard, the StrateTree, Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, the Theory of Constraints, and Business Process Reengineering) in ways that are easy to understand and enjoyable to learn. His step-by-step guidance through the each tool and philosophy make this book essential for Leaders, Managers, Quality Professionals, and anyone interested in improving performance in any industry. The message is simple, the illustrations are an excellent complement to the story, and the Reader interaction (Pre- and Post-Tests coupled with Rest, Reflect, and Relate sections at the end of each chapter) reinforce education, application, and relevance. Take a trip to Lean Acres today - you will be better for it." Mikel J. Harry Co-creator of Six Sigma and best-selling author.

A Tale of Strategic Innovation and Improvement in a Farm-iliar Setting

Lean Acres

Marc Wilson no se da por vencido. A pesar de las dificultades que enfrenta y de la decisión de su padre de vender, está decidido a conservar la empresa familiar. El problema es que se están retrasando en la entrega de más y más proyectos y sus clientes ya no lo toleran. Marc está buscando la solución por todas partes, cuando en una de sus clases del MBA descubre un enfoque único que ve a las operaciones en términos de flujo. 
El concepto de flujo es sencillo. Es fácil visualizar el flujo de los proyectos que pasan por el sistema y comprender que, si algo lo obstruye, los proyectos se acumulan, que el tiempo de entrega se alarga y, como resultado, la confiabilidad de las fechas de entrega se ve afectada. Lo que no es tan fácil es descubrir los obstáculos específicos que obstruyen el flujo y descifrar cómo eliminarlos.

A Guide to Digital Transformation & Organizational Change for Proactive Professionals

Why By Design

Many production managers have de-stocked excessively large inventories, gone lean, experimented with continuous improvement processes and introduced new working practices. These interventions have largely failed. Businesses have also failed to invest in the workforce that undertakes improvements. This means that cash flow stops quickly, stocks are depleted to zero and customers lose confidence.
Systems for Manufacturing Excellence looks at how people and technology work effectively together to generate high performance manufacturing and service operations. Not everyone is a Toyota but that does not mean we cannot learn from such businesses. The book will present a logic, variety of approaches and methods that underpin the different models of high performance used by 'world class' businesses. The authors use examples from their training with Toyota, work with Tesco, and many world class manufacturing businesses that form their research agenda. The book will help teams run each part of their production process for effectiveness and efficiency, with a high level of discipline that supports excellence in performance.

Generating efficient and reliable manufacturing operations

Systems for Manufacturing Excellence

'Durgapur was once a symbol of pride-of industry, growth, and human ambition.

Now, it stands as a graveyard of abandoned factories and shattered public sector dreams.



When a management consultant is sent to revive a failing plant in the town - he expects broken processes and bad management.

Instead, he finds perfection.

Metrics are green. Processes are optimized. Teams are performing.

And yet-the factory is falling apart.

As he struggles to explain the contradiction, another story begins to unfold beyond the factory gates.

In the crumbling townships and deserted quarters of Durgapur lie the secrets of a collapse-of a once-mighty industrial ecosystem that disintegrated, leaving behind lost identities, fractured communities, and unanswered questions.

A past shaped not just by bad decisions, but by forces far beyond it-Cold War alliances, geopolitical trade-offs, and betrayals at the highest levels that were never acknowledged.

As the consultant digs deeper, he uncovers layers of uncomfortable truth-and something far more unsettling lurking in the rusted industrial ruins.

The Residue of Progress is a gripping geopolitical-management mystery set in the shadow of India's industrial decline - where global power games, corporate systems, and human survival collide... and the past refuses to stay buried.
