📚 Book Notes: The Goal

I’m in love with this newfound genre of business novel. It’s non-fiction so it teaches you something while it’s written like fiction so it’s quite easy to read. The Goal serves as a good introduction to operations, the theory of constraints, and managing an enterprise, with practical examples.

Here are my notes from The Goal:

  1. Productivity is the act of bringing a company closer to its goal. Every action that brings a company closer to its goal is productive. Every action that does not bring a company closer to its goal is not productive.
  2. Productivity is meaningless unless you know what your goal is.

If you liked the above content, I’d definitely recommend reading the whole book. 💯

Until We Meet Again…
