The Business of Constraints

Business of Constraints is part of the ‘Anybody’s Business’ series and provides a range of great performance evaluation tools to rally round your workshop group and deliver a range of business outcomes. Whether you wish to explore an opportunity, diagnose a problem or develop a strategy or team, there is a tool to help. Simply take a look at the workshop design section to get a picture of how design the perfect brainstorming session, then use any of the tools to deliver the knowledge! It’s not just about great content however, or how to use different tools - it’s also about Facilitation with a capital “F”. Like all the mini books in this series, the reader is armed with an arsenal of Facilitator techniques. The skills of a good Facilitator make the tools come to life, get participants positively interacting and build each session into a series of ‘grey cell outsourcing’! So our Business of Constraints includes some key guides on good facilitator practice. Finally, like good sports coaching, you need those warm ups to get people into the mood for sometimes intense (or even tense!) workshop settings. There is nothing like a good Icebreaker session to loosen the soul and bring down those barriers.  Business of Constraints also includes a selection to wet the appetite of any willing workshop participant. As a special feature, a section covering some of the leading management thinkers nicely compliments the range of tools. 

Business is all about managing constraints – so manage them! If you want everything in one place however, better get Anybody’s Business! If you want to master the work of a Facilitator with just the right range of techniques, code of practice, icebreakers and workshop design elements, then simply get ‘The Facilitator’. Facilitate, coach and mentor like there’s no tomorrow! Go get ‘em!
