Description
Peter Drucker’s wide-ranging book, drawn from his best work, looks at management, the individual and society. He connects these themes of today’s world with his usual clear-sighted and far-reaching style to create a work which encapsulates his essential and strongest writings in one volume. Under the three headings, Drucker covers aspects such as what the non-profits are teaching business and the information that executives need today. In his section on the individual he gives advice on knowing your own strengths and values, your time and, intriguingly, the second half of your life. The third part on society encompasses the coming of the entrepreneurial society and citizenship through the social sector. “His breadth of vision, his internationalism and his sober realism combine to make analysis of the present and prediction about the future gripping” – “The Economist”. “The pre-eminent management thinker of our time” – “Harvard Business School”.
