More quotes by Peter Drucker
The task of leadership is to create an alignment of strengths so strong that it makes the system's weaknesses irrelevant.
Peter Drucker
If socialism is defined as ownership of the means of production--and this is both the orthodox and the only rigorous definition--then the United States is the first truly Socialist country.
Peter Drucker
There are two types of people in the business community: those who produce results and those who give you reasons why they didn't.
Peter Drucker
That the government's power under the Taft-Hartley Act to stop a strike by injunction so clearly strengthens the hand of the employer-even though it is used only when a strike threatens the national health, welfare, or safety-is a grave blemish and explains much of union resistance to the Act.
Peter Drucker
What is the major problem? It is fundamentally the confusion between effectiveness and efficiency that stands between doing the right things and doing things right. There is surely nothing quite so useless as doing with great efficiency what should not be done at all.
Peter Drucker
What can I contribute that will significantly affect the performance and the results of the institution I serve?
Peter Drucker
To arrive at the definition of the problem he must begin by finding the 'critical factor'. This is the element (or elements) in the situation that has to be changed before anything else can be changed, moved, acted upon.
Peter Drucker
Marketing is not only much broader than selling, it is not a specialized activity at all. It encompasses the entire business. It is the whole business seen from the point of view of its final result, that is, from the customer's point of view.
Peter Drucker
It has been said, and only half in jest, that a tough, professionally led union is a great force for improving management performance. It forces the manager to think about what he is doing and to be able to explain his actions and behavior.
Peter Drucker
Everything requires time. It is the only truly universal condition. All work takes place in time and uses up time. Yet most people take for granted this unique, irreplaceable, and necessary resource. Nothing else, perhaps, distinguishes effective executives as much as their tender loving care of time.
Peter Drucker
Loafing is easy, but leisure is difficult.
Peter Drucker
Elephants have a hard time adapting. Cockroaches outlive everything.
Peter Drucker
The most effective way to manage change is to create it.
Peter Drucker
Your first and foremost job as a leader is to take charge of your own energy and then help to orchestrate the energy of those around you.
Peter Drucker
The key to greatness is to look for people's potential and spend time developing it.
Peter Drucker
There is nothing worse than doing the wrong thing well.
Peter Drucker
When the business grows, the person who founded it is incredibly busy. Rapid growth puts an enormous strain on a business. You outgrow your production facilities. You outgrow your management capabilities.
Peter Drucker
Nothing else, perhaps, distinguishes effective executives as much as their tender loving care of time.
Peter Drucker
To survive and succeed, every organization will have to turn itself into a change agent
Peter Drucker
No one learns as much about a subject as one who is forced to teach it.
