{"product_id":"operating-model-debt-werner-van-zyl-9798189440106","title":"Operating Model Debt","description":"\u003cp\u003eEvery generation of business gets a machine that changes what's possible overnight, the dynamo, the ERP system, the CRM, agile, DevOps, and now AI, and every generation makes the same mistake: it adopts the machine faster than it redesigns who decides what around it. The gap between the two has a name. It's Operating Model Debt, and it has been quietly compounding in your calendar, your org chart, and your comp plan long before anyone called it that.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book traces the pattern from a 1920s factory floor that took thirty years to catch up to its own electricity, through a Toyota assembly line with a piece of rope on it, to the boardrooms where AI is now running the same experiment at ten times the speed. Along the way it shows exactly what the debt looks like, department by department, and exactly how the companies that pay it down actually do it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAI didn't invent this problem. It just made the bill arrive faster than anyone budgeted for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"The dynamo worked on the first afternoon. The factory took thirty years to catch up to it.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Werner Van Zyl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798189440106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Werner Van Zyl","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50666061725951,"sku":"9798189440106","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/operating-model-debt-werner-van-zyl-9798189440106","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
