Goldratt TOC for Ever Flourishing Companies Workshop 

Most companies don’t have bottlenecks. They have enormous excess capacities and this capacity is hidden from us because our thinking is incorrect.
Every action that does not bring the company closer to its goal is not productive. 

This Workshop will demonstrate the validity of these statements and show you how to become a company that is Ever Flourishing: a Company that is continuously and significantly increasing value to stakeholders - employees, clients and shareholders.

Previous attendees of this Workshop have told us they have:
