The follow up to 'The Goal' where the protagonist Alex Rogo turns things around using some common sense principles taught by his friend and mentor Jonah, Goal 2, takes it to the next level. Alex is senior manager and he and his divisions are facing threat of closure and they have to turn things around against all odds. No emotion, no motivation, just pure common sense and numbers.
As in the first book Alex's family is interwoven into the story so we see how these principles can also play out in domestic and normal circumstances. The concepts of drawing a cloud to cover all possibilities, of drawing a current reality tree and a future reality tree and then trimming the negative branches is all fine common sense and stuff that works. I only wish he had summed it up in a small how-to so we could have used it well. I'll research a bit to see how to use these concepts better.
Thanks Amar for lending me these two books.
