Abstract
Peter Drucker has been called the inventor of modern management. This user-friendly book helps readers grasp all of Drucker's key ideas on leadership, strategy, innovation, personal effectiveness, career development, and many other topics.
"Peter Drucker is widely regarded as the greatest expert on management; in fact, he pretty much invented the subject. And as the author of thirty-eight books over six decades, he covered a lot of ground. His ideas remain just as astute and insightful today as they were decades ago, but who has time to navigate through all of those books?" "Inside Drucker's Brain distills the essential lessons from Drucker's work and offers a fresh perspective on this extraordinary thinker. It will help you grasp all of Drucker's key ideas on leadership, strategy, innovation, personal effectiveness, career development, and many other topics. It also provides a blueprint for managers who want to implement Drucker's best ideas in their own organizations. Drucker's biggest contribution was a mind-set, not a methodology. He focused on prodding managers to ask the right questions, to look beyond what they thought they knew, and to focus on tomorrow rather than yesterday. If anything, this mind-set is even more valuable in the digital age than it was in the industrial age." "This book is partly based on an unprecedented daylong interview Jeffrey Krarnes conducted with the then ninety-four-year-old Drucker. He spoke candidly about his enormous body of work, and the leaders he had advised over the years (including Jack Welch). Krames showcases Drucker's most important ideas and strategies in a contemporary context while painting an engaging personal portrait of an authentic legend."--BOOK JACKET.
