Goldratt’s Golden Nugget #15
Freezing in projects

The significance of freeze

As we all are very well aware, bad multi-tasking is a big sore evil that has major negative effects on performances in any environment, and in particular in projects environment. To diminish bad multi-tasking in projects environment we use, as an integral part of the Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM) solution, the freeze mechanism. This is the hardest step to get collaboration for. If we wish to get the full collaboration of all relevant functions on the freeze – and at the same time to accelerate performance – it behooves us to sharpen our understanding regarding the freeze mechanism.

Clarke Ching’s Interview

Yesterday, Clarke Ching posted the interview he made about Isn’t It Obvious?

Here is what Clarke Ching writes:

From: Clarke Ching
Date: 24-Nov-09 10:21 AM

I’ve just spent the last hour chatting with the Ultimate TOC Thinker … Eli Goldratt about his latest book, which is out now. [I have a copy sitting beside me and it is very, very good.]

http://www.tocthinkers.com/2009/11/isnt-it-obvious-interview-with-eli-goldratt-mp3.html

In the 60 minute interview Eli talks about the books title (it’s kinda obvious why he chose the title when you hear his reason), the three obvious lessons from the book and the three less obvious, but more important, reasons. You’ll also hear about his next book, which he’s currently writing … and the four after that. You’ll hear about the writing process and, I’ll bet, you’ll have reread The Choice and The Haystack Syndrome by the end of the year.

I hope you enjoy the interview and please share.
