Overview
The best of Peter F. Druckerās articles on management, all in one place.
That āmanagementā exists as a concept, a practice, and a profession is largely due to the thinking of Peter F. Drucker. For nearly half a century, he inspired and educated managersāand powerfully shaped the nature of businessāwith his iconic articles in Harvard Business Review.
Through the lens of Druckerās broad vision, this volume presents an opportunity to trace the great shifts in organizations in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuriesāfrom manufacturing to knowledge work, from career-length employee tenures to short-term contract relationships, from command-and-control structures to flatter organizations that call for new leadership techniques.
These articles also offer a firm and practical grasp of the role of the manager and the executive todayātheir responsibilities, their relationships, their decisions, and detailed processes that can make their work more effective.
A celebrated thinker at his best, in this volume Drucker paints a clear and comprehensive picture of management thinking and practiceāboth as it is and as it will be.
This collection of articles includes: āWhat Makes an Effective Executive,ā āThe Theory of the Business,ā āManaging for Business Effectiveness,ā āThe Effective Decision,ā āHow to Make People Decisions,ā āTheyāre Not Employees, Theyāre People,ā āThe New Productivity Challenge,ā āWhat Business Can Learn from Nonprofits,ā āThe New Society of Organizations,ā and āManaging Oneself.ā
