The Gold Mine

A clearly written and accessible book in which all Lean concepts and techniques are clearly dealt with, as well as the human side of implementing Lean. Freddy and Michael (father and son) have succeeded in pouring their broad experience into a beautiful story.

'Business novels', that is, management books in the form of a story rather than conceptual and theoretical, have been very popular since the 1980s. Freddy and Michael Ballé have done a special job here that far surpasses other management novels. For instead of writing a story around one or a few ideas, they manage to stuff the whole book full of them. This makes the book unexpectedly profound.

For an even better understanding and to challenge yourself, we recommend the Gold Mine Trilogy Study Guide.
