Daniel Doiron's new book Seeing Money Clearly challenges Agile Centers of Excellence to view decision-making through the lens of Throughput Accounting.\xa0 Throughput Accounting is a lot of things: An accounting system,\xa0 A financial application,\xa0 A process of ongoing improvement (POOGI), and\xa0 First and foremost, the decision-making arm of the Theory of Constraints.\xa0 Daniel\u2019s Bio \u201cI am the only CPA in the world - negative assurance provided - to give a one-day Throughput Accounting class to a CPA chapter (Qu\xe9bec) within the scope of their mandatory Professional Development Program. A few CPA chapters in the world give diluted Throughput Accounting classes in a recorded format and ignore the Five Focusing Steps, thereby disqualifying them from the spirit of Throughput Accounting\u201d, states Doiron. \xa0 \u201cFor Agile CoEs (Center of Excellence), I wrote the only Throughput Accounting book dealing exclusively with Knowledge Work. It has received rave reviews from the top minds in Throughput Accounting as I have brought numerous novelties never thought of before.\u201d In short, Seeing Money Clearly:\xa0 Teaches CPAs how to make more money now and in the future. Teaches Agile CoEs how to mint money.\xa0 Download Seeing Money Clearly at and reach out at daniel_doiron@hotmail.com and on Twitter @AgileAgonist Re-read Saturday\xa0 News This week, Chapter 1 of Coaching Agile Teams by Lyssa Adkins (SPaMCAST Amazon affiliate line - buy a copy).
