Unreleased appendix to the original edition of The Choice | top
 At first, all my father asked me for was to use my name. He said he was writing a new book and he would like to write it as a dialog between him and me. This would have been my father’s tenth book and I appreciate his attempts to continuously try new styles of writing. Reluctantly I gave my permission. Then he came back with another request.

Goldratt's Thinking Processes Workshop | top
 We have received excellent feedback from participants who attended this last Goldratt Executive Jonah Training and we are anxious to share our learnings and determine your continued interest to attend a similar event. (Please take a moment to read few compelling testimonials below).
It was very fortunate for everyone, Dr. Goldratt was able to spend three full days with participants and as a result we have made several new additions to the content of the course that we believe are truly extraordinary.
The most obvious change has been again to the name, Goldratt's Thinking Processes Workshop, to reflect the relevance and importance of the latest and most powerful Thinking Process tool necessary for successful TOC implementations.
We are so convinced of the value this workshop provides based on our vast experience and the positive testimonials we continually receive that it quickly diminishes the investment required. The best way for us to share this value and to determine if it will meet your immediate needs is to invite you to meet with us.

Goldratt’s Thinking Processes Workshop is a unique learning opportunity like no other. Read what recent attendees have to say about it.
“There is no comparison to any other training program I have attended earlier. One-on-one training with three instructors full time available for two weeks to teach and guide in development of conflict clouds, CRT, FRT and then S & T was unparallel to any other program on TOC, Lean or Six Sigma that I have ever attended.�
– Dr. Gary Wadhwa
November, 2009
“The feedback (I received during the event) from Dr Goldratt (was most valuable for me). I felt really seen by him. I hardly knew him before now and unexpectedly I left Israel with a deep admiration, love and respect for him.�
