This is in relation to The Goal by eliyahu goldratt.

1. What is something that stood out in these chapters of the book that you can relate to a company you have read about or worked with closely and how it relates to their processes? Your post can be about a similar experience you had or how the particular bottleneck impacted your own business or a business you have read about. You can also relate the instance to a news article.
2. Provide an analysis of how a certain bottleneck could have been changed or lowered through an operations improvement plan. The improvement plan should be limited to two paragraphs and include specific ideas for how it can be implemented.

Guidance for Post

Use the following suggestions to guide your answers:

• Show evidence of critical thinking by going beyond information sharing. For example, post an opinion or solution from your point of view and weave in evidence to support it (make sure to reference the resources you use to provide the evidence).
• Show evidence of critical thinking by sharing your thought process as you answer the prompts.
  • Did you learn something new from that instance or relate it to the news (for example, the Suez Canal bottleneck in the news)?
  • What questions come to mind?
  • Did you change your mind about anything? Why or why not?
• Reflect on something you may be struggling with or thinking about.
