Je suis consultant auprès de propriétaires et de managers de PME-PMI depuis plus de trente ans.

J’ai découvert le livre « Le But » d’Eliyahu Goldratt en février 2007, alors que nous nous battions, avec un de mes clients, pour sauver de la faillite l’usine qu’il venait de racheter. Son usine était la copie conforme de celle du livre et je pouvais presque mettre un nom sur chaque personnage.

Ce livre a changé ma vie de consultant et ma vie personnelle, et depuis, je me suis consacré à l’étude - je suis Certified Practitioner par TOCICO en Finance & Measures et en Thinking Processes - et à la mise en oeuvre dans ma pratique professionnelle de la Théorie des Contraintes.

J’ai créé par ailleurs un des rares sites web en français offrant du contenu sur la Théorie des Contraintes (www.theoriedescontraintes.fr).

Sou Consultor de Gestão na area da ToC (Theory of Constraints - Teoria das Restrições) e Operações, sou Auditor e Formador. Fui Diretor de Operações na Indústria Alimentar cerca de 25 anos, com experiência nas áreas da Produção, Qualidade, Ambiente e Higiene & Segurança, Manutenção, Compras e Logística/ Supply Chain. Tenho 7 anos de experiência na Indústria Automóvel num dos fornecedores principais de OEM. Os meus clientes provêm da areas; alimentar, têxtil, energia, aviação, FMCG, retalho, logística e agro-industrias. Tenho experiência internacional como associado da Goldratt Consulting (Brasil, Portugal) e nos mercados Polaco e Angolano onde efetuei projetos varios projetos de melhoria.

Trabalho com a ToC desde 2003 e sou membro certificado da TOCICO. Tal como muitas outras pessoas encontrei acidentalmente o livro de Eli Goldratt "A Meta" e esta foi a obra que até hoje mais me impressionou em termos de negócios. Considero a ToC como a "rainha" das metodologias de gestão e melhoria organizacional e aquela mais radical e disruptiva na sua abordagem.

Sou Autor/Co-Author de oito livros sobre a ToC nas áreas Geral, de Operações (Produção), de Distribuição, de Projetos e de Apoio à Decisão.

Tenho também conhecimentos de Lean Manufacturing (antes TPS) e de Six Sigma (antes TQM) e nos últimos anos tenho integrado e aplicado estas melhores metodologias numa abordagem TLS (ToC, Lean, Sixsigma) que penso ser a melhor forma de atacar e resolver os problemas sistémicos das organizações. Tenho experiência de ensino e formação nestas áreas desde 2007 e esta abordagem interessa-me em vários tipos de indústrias e serviços, tendo desenvolvido um curso MBA online sobre TOC em 2016, em parceria com a CLT Services.

A minha formação base é em Engenharia Química (IST) tenho um MBA em Gestão Geral e um Mestrado em Gestão (ambos NOVA SBE).

I am a Management Consultant specializing in ToC (Theory of Constraints), Operations and Systems, as well as an Auditor and Trainer. I spent about 25 years as Operations Director in the Food Industry, gaining experience in Production, Quality, Environment, Health & Safety, Maintenance, Purchasing, and Logistics/Supply Chain. I also have 7 years of experience in the Automotive Industry, working with a main OEM supplier. My clients come from food, textile, energy, aviation, FMCG, retail and agro-industry sectors. I have international experience as an associate with Goldratt Consulting (Brasil, Portugal) as well as in Poland, and Angola markets, where I have conducted several improvement projects.

I have been working with ToC since 2003 and I am a certified member of TOCICO. Like many others, I accidentally came across Eli Goldratt’s book The Goal, which remains the most impactful business book I have ever read. I consider ToC the “queen” of management and organizational improvement methodologies—both the most radical and the most disruptive in its approach.

I am the author or co-author of eight books on ToC covering General, Operations (Production), Distribution, Project, and Decision Support areas.

I also have knowledge of Lean Manufacturing (formerly TPS) and Six Sigma (formerly TQM). In recent years, I have integrated and applied these best practices through the TLS approach (ToC, Lean, Sixsigma), which I believe is the most effective way to tackle and solve organizational problems. I have been teaching in these areas since 2007, and this integrated approach interests me across a wide variety of industries and services. In 2016, I developed an online ToC MBA course in partnership with CLT Services.
