A business fiction book that describes "The Theory of Constraints" a process initially applied in manufacturing that deals with optimizing production line systems.
I found the sections on identifying a bottle neck in a system, focusing on optimizing the system around this point and re-evaluating system performance afterwards very applicable to software engineering.
Everything from CICD pipelines, the flow of work through your team to or performance optimizing a service oriented architecture.
Very much a fore father to books like Phoenix Project mentioned by others here.
Having recently listened to The Goal on Audible, it may be worth noting that it has multiple voice actors as well as ambient background sounds. Definitely adds some color to an already impressive novel.
I agree, totally worth reading, but when I read it in grad school I found it exceedingly dry. kinda had to choke it down. Certainly worth it and I'll probably listen to the Audible recording for a refresher when I need another book
