Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly:
In this intriguing, readable business novel, which
illustratesstate-of-the-art economic theory, Alex Rogo is a UniCo
plant managerwhose factory and marriage are failing. To revitalize
the plant, hefollows piecemeal advice from an elusive former
college professor whoteaches, for example, that reduction in the
efficiency of some plantoperations may make the entire operation
more productive. Alex'sattempts to find the path to profitability
and to engage his employeesin the struggle involve the reader; and
thankfully the authors'economic models, including a game with
match sticks and bowls, areeasy to understand. Although some
characters are as anonymous as thegoods manufactured in the
factory, others ring true. In addition, thetender story of Alex
and his wife's separation and reconciliationmakes a touching
contrast to the rest of the book. Recommended foranyone with an
interest in the state of the American economy.

Process mapping gives you an accurate
picture of work flow and customer-supplier relationships, which in
turn helps you make the right improvements. Two levels of process
mapping are presented: relationship mapping -- which gives an
aerial view of work relationships; and cross-functional process
mapping -- which gives a closer view of work as it is really
performed. This book is excellent as a hands-on team resource, a
training supplement, and a reference. |
