Eliyahu M. Goldratt was an Israeli physicist and management consultant best known as the creator of the Theory of Constraints (TOC). He is a global authority in operations management, famously introducing the world to bottleneck optimization through his 1984 business novel, ‘The Goal.’ Regarded by Fortune as a ‘guru to industry,’ Goldratt revolutionized manufacturing and business strategy by teaching organizations to maximize throughput by focusing on their most critical systemic limitations.
