The Critical Chain

in Project Management

I’ve been reading Eliyahu Goldratt’s book Critical Chain and am quite intrigued with the application of Goldratt’s Theory of Constraints (TOC) to Project Management. The book has some excellent ideas for possible improvements to Project Management methodologies. I am currently about halfway through the book and am very interested in finishing. After starting the book, I began searching the internet for other Critical Chain and/or TOC Project Management topics and have found quite a few interesting websites and books and plan to continue to delve deeper into this topic.

An interesting website for Critical Chain/TOC and other Project Management topics can be found on the Focused Performance website.

Interesting stuff…..look for more on this topic in coming days/weeks/months.
