Praise for The Drucker Lectures Peter Drucker shined a light in a dark and chaotic world, and his words remain as relevant today as when he first spoke them. Druckers lectures and thoughts deserve to be considered by every person of responsibility, now, tomorrow, ten years from now, fifty, and a hundred. -Jim Collins, author of Good to Great and How the Mighty Fall Rick Wartzman has brought Peter Drucker alive again, and vividly so, in his own words. These samples of his talks and lectures, because they were spoken not written, will be new to almost all of us. A great and unexpected treat. -Charles Handy, author of Myself and Other More Important Matters Peter Druckers ideas continue to resonate powerfully today. His lectures on effectiveness, innovation, the social sector, education and so much more provide fresh insights that extend beyond his other writings and provide lessons for us all. This book is a gem. -Wendy Kopp, CEO and founder of Teach for America Rick Wartzman has performed a great service in pulling together The Drucker Lectures . The collection is as far-ranging as Druckers thinking and writing. If you have sampled Drucker before, you will find things you havent seen. Peters ideas live on. You will be energized by reading them anew. -Paul ONeill, former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Peter Drucker inspires awe. From the 1940s until his death a few years ago, he displayed a combination of insight, prescience, and productivity that few will ever match. This superbly edited collection captures both the range of Druckers thinking and the sweep of history that informed it. The Drucker Lectures is a riveting read that reveals the depth and subtlety of one of Americas most remarkable minds. -Daniel H. Pink, author of A Whole New Mind and Drive Rick Wartzman really has brought Peter to life in The Drucker Lectures . Reading this book, I practically felt as though I were seated in the audience, listening to my friend and hero, Peter Drucker-truly one of the great geniuses of management. These lectures are as vital today as they were when Peter delivered them. They cover significant territory, from the importance of faith and the individual to the rise of the global economy. Its a classic collection that belongs on every managers bookshelf. -Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager and Leading at a Higher Level Previously unpublished talks from the Father of Modern Management Throughout his professional lif...

Introduction

You can picture him perched on the edge of a classroom table, peering through thick glasses at the students who hang on his every word. His baritone voice washes over the room, his Austrian accent as thick as a Sachertorte.

He doesnt refer to any written notes. But every now and again, his eyes roll back in his head and he pauses, almost like a computer downloading a store of information, before returning to his point and underscoring it with a new set of facts and figures.
