- Translated into 4 languages
- The first book to be published by Goldratt’s publisher that was not authored by Goldratt himself
- Clear and concise guide
Radically improve any organization by applying the management philosophies of W. Edwards Deming and Eliyahu M. Goldratt with one powerful 10-step process: The Decalogue. A step by step guide to implementing the management systems of W. Edwards Deming and Eliyahu M. Goldratt. Dr.’s Deming and Goldratt are recognized as two of the foremost geniuses of modern management. The integration of the Theory of Constraints and the System of Profound Knowledge into one cohesive process brings the work of these two great thinkers to a new level of accessibility. The ten steps of THE DECALOGUE reflect the basic concept that in order to manage effectively we must be able to predict the outcome of out management decisions. This seemingly simple statement is the core of successful management. The Tools presented in this book will enable any organization to: * Manage effectively * Develop focused business strategies * Create an atmosphere of continuous improvement
You will not find a quick fix in these pages, but with determination and focus you will be able to control and radically improve your organization.
“This book will be appreciated by the already initiated in Deming and Goldratt’s mindframes. It’s well structured and visuals help a lot in the understanding of the many examples offered throughout it. As a concept blender myself, I appreciate very much Sechel’s integration to the story, and I look forward to more integrations by the authors. Congratulations to them.”
Fabian Szulanski, Director, System Dynamics Centre at ITBA
Sechel allows us to see the relevance of, and adopt in our operations, the scientific approach that has catalyzed the last 400 years of human endeavour. Only with an acquired sechel is it possible to manage successfully a conscious and connected organization, one that recognizes the systemic, network and project-like intrinsic nature of the work of any enterprise.
A new business novel plus over 60 pages of supplementary material on a Deming and Goldratt approach to managing organizations.
“I think the book is brilliantly written, much more engaging than the Goldratt books. It sort of captivates one with a sense of wanting to see what’s going to happen next.” GENE BELLINGER, SYSTEMS THIKING WORLD
