IIRC, Critical Chain, the 3rd installment in that series, details transitioning from making widgets to a widget-as-a-service business mode. Radical at the time, the preferred strategy today. Talk about foresight. Reading Goldratt, Deming, Drucker, Buckminster Fuller, and a few others, blew my mind. Most of my really good ideas and works were inspired by them. Alas, being reality-based also impaired my career. Like during the dot-com bubble, the so-called New Economy, I just couldn't figure out wtf everyone was talking about. So I very pointedly did not jump on the crazy train. My loss. I wish there someone like Goldratt explaining grifts, cons, and investment banking.
