- sevagh 2y agoUnrealistic book where people around him were willing to change and didn't dig their heels in to protect their fiefdom.
- psunavy03 2y agoIt's a horribly amateurish novel that is a decent intro to DevOps principles.
- Jtsummers 2y agoI've read enough business "fables" to say that it's about average for that category of writing. It communicates its point through the fable, but the novel itself is ok at best and certainly not the reason to read it. It does read easily since it's not trying to be high literature so it's readable in under a week if you can dedicate an hour or two each day to it.
- hinkley 2y agoThe Goal is also told in narrative form. It’s from the perspective of a plant manager whose company is spiraling down the drain and his plant has been given 3 months to improve their numbers by an exec. When we first meet the exec he’s poking the hornet’s nest to get a rush order done, and he pisses off a machine tech who quits in a huff, accidentally breaking the one machine they need the most in the process. Which is way too close to home for some of us. The guy bitching the loudest about the problems is usually the source of at least a third of your problems.
