Join Darien Library's Business Book Group to discuss THE GOAL a Business Graphic Novel by Eliyhu M. Goldratt.   

Library staff members will lead the discussion. Unlike other book groups, it is not required to read the book before the meeting. The group will informally discuss the book and then spend a few minutes afterward to network with each other.

Books will be provided once registration is completed. You will be notified by email when your book is ready for pick-up. 

About the Book:

Alex Rogo is a harried plant manager who has been given 90 days to save his failing factory. If he doesn't improve the plant's performance, corporate headquarters will close it down and hundreds of workers will lose their jobs. It takes a chance meeting with Jonah, a former professor, to help him break out of his conventional thinking and figure out what needs to be done. As Alex identifies the plant's problems and works with his team to find solutions, the reader gains an understanding of the fundamental concepts behind the Theory of Constraints.
