Every few hundred years in Western history there occurs a sharp transformation. Within a few short decades, society - its worldview, its basic values, its social and political structures, its art, its key institutions - rearranges itself. We are currently living through such a time.
Peter Drucker
Image
Every enterprise is learning and teaching institution. Training and development must be built into it on all levels, training and development that never stop.

What gets measured gets managed.
Peter Drucker
Image
The company is not and must never claim to be home, family, religion, life or fate for the individual. It must never interfere in his private life or his citizenship. He is tied to the company through a voluntary and cancellable employment contract, not through some mystical or indissoluble bond.

Peter Drucker
Image
A manager is responsible for the application and performance of knowledge.
Peter Drucker
Image
Change is the norm unless an organization sees that its task is to lead change, that organization will not survive.
Peter Drucker
Image
Brilliant men are often strikingly ineffectual. They fail to realize that the brilliant insight is not by itself achievement. They never have learned that insights become effectiveness only through hard systematic work.
Peter Drucker
Image
The purpose of an organization is to enable ordinary humans beings to do extraordinary things.
Peter Drucker
Image
There's an enormous number of managers who have retired on the job.
Peter Drucker
Image
Important decisions are risky. They should be controversial. Acclamation means that nobody has done the homework.
Peter Drucker
Image
It is commonly believed that innovations create changes - but few ever do. Successful innovations exploit changes that have already happened.
Peter Drucker
Image
You can't manage knowledge.Knowledge is between two ears and only between two ears.
