More quotes by Peter Drucker
The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well the product or service fits him and sells itself.
Peter Drucker
Because its purpose is to create a customer, the business enterprise has two - and only these two — basic functions: marketing and innovation. Marketing and innovation produce results all the rest are 'costs'.
Peter Drucker
With Christianity, freedom and equality became the two basic concepts of Europe they are themselves Europe.
Peter Drucker
Knowledge is power, which is why people who had it in the past often tried to make a secret of it. In post-capitalism, power comes from transmitting information to make it productive, not from hiding it.
Peter Drucker
One does not manage people. The task is to lead people.
Peter Drucker
The large organization has to learn to innovate, or it won't survive.
Peter Drucker
Every organization has to prepare for the abandonment of everything it does.
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
To satisfy the customer is the mission and purpose of every business.
Peter Drucker
The young knowledge worker whose job is too small to challenge and test his abilities either leaves or declines rapidly into premature middle age, soured, cynical, unproductive.
Peter Drucker
The worker's effectiveness is determined largely by the way he is being managed.
Peter Drucker
In the modern corporation the decisive power, that of the managers , is derived from no one but the managers themselves controlled by nobody and nothing and responsible to no one. It is in the most literal sense unfounded, unjustified, uncontrolled and irresponsible power.
Peter Drucker
Time is the scarcest resource and unless it is managed nothing else can be managed.
Peter Drucker
Organizationally what is required - and evolving - is systems management.
Peter Drucker
True marketing starts...with the customer, his demographics, his realities, his needs, his values. It does not ask, What do we want to sell? It asks, What does the customer want to buy?
Peter Drucker
Far too much reorganization goes on all the time. Organizitis is like a spastic colon.
Peter Drucker
We have only one alternative: either to build a functioning industrial society or see freedom itself disappear in anarchy and tyranny.
Peter Drucker
You cannot build performance on weaknesses. You can build only on strengths.
Peter Drucker
Thus, for those who are willing to go out into the field, to look and to listen, changing demographics is both a highly productive and a highly dependable innovation opportunity.
Peter Drucker
An effective executive builds on strengths - their own strengths, the strengths of superiors, colleagues, subordinates, and on the strength of the situation.
Peter Drucker
