Strategies in Chaos? Consider Goldratt's Thinking Processes
The
theory of constraints thinking processes of E. Goldratt are effective generic tools useful in both normal and chaotic situations.
- Goldratt's
current reality tree diagnoses the core conflicts and identifies the root problem/s that give birth to most undesirable effects experienced in a complex situation.
- The
5-focusing steps offer a constraint management technique of never ending system improvement.
- The
evaporating cloud technique dissolves most complex conflicts by speciying contextualized win-win solutions.
- The
future reality tree and prerequisite tree are powerful, robust, and delightfully effective planning tools.
Done right, results from theory of constraints thinking processes are practical, sustainable, overwhelming to say the least.
