The Wealth Gap Challenge

Discover The Secret To Our Widening Wealth Margins

Despite major efforts and some success to remove discriminatory practices to help level the playing field, the wealth gap between the ultra-poor and the ultra-rich keeps growing. Why is that?

Buy Goldratt's Simulator BundleStarting At $97

In this video, Dr. Alan Barnard, CEO of Goldratt Research Labs, shares a counter-intuitive reason for this phenomena that is based on his research on how small changes, when amplified by randomness and other mechanisms, can have very large impacts on systems.

Now, for the first time, you can download a simulation model that you can use to discover, for yourself, why there is such a large and growing wealth gap in all countries, and secondly, to test out different strategies like a wealth tax that can be used to protect the poorest of the poor from extreme poverty.

THE DICE GAME is based on Dr. Eli Goldratt's best-selling book "The Goal"

Dr. Eli Goldratt's book "The Goal" has sold more than 10 million copies and has revolutionized manufacturing. It has become the go-to book not just for Fortune 500 executives, but also for MBA students, management teams, and business owners.

The Dice Game is how protagonist Alex Rogo discovered why systems perform well below expectations when they have variability and interdependency between processes and machines.

Now, for the first time, you can have access to the DICE GAME in the form of an Interactive Simulation Model to discover: How to dramatically improve the performance of any system in a very simple but counter-intuitive way.

Inspired by Dr. Eli Goldratt's book
"The Haystack Syndrome"

In "The Haystack Syndrome," Dr. Eli Goldratt, the creator of the Theory of Constraints, introduced the P&Q Factory challenge. This challenge, centered around a seemingly simple factory setup producing only two products – P and Q, unveils the complex layers of decision-making in business operations.

Dr. Goldratt used this example to help people understand how complicated and nuanced profitability calculations can become, especially when production constraints are involved.

We developed the P&Q Factory Simulator to make the insights from The Haystack Syndrome more accessible, in the form of an interactive simulator. Users can immerse themselves in the challenge, experimenting with various strategies to optimize factory performance and profitability.
