More quotes by Peter Drucker
No one has ever failed to find the facts they are looking for.
Peter Drucker
One does not manage people. The task is to lead people.
Peter Drucker
Planning is actually incompatible with an entrepreneurial society and economy. Planning is the kiss of death of entrepreneurship.
Peter Drucker
We live in an age of unprecedented opportunity: If you’ve got ambition and smarts, you can rise to the top of your chosen profession, regardless of where you started out.
Peter Drucker

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

Peter Drucker
The experience of the human race indicates strongly that the only person in abundant supply is the universal incompetent.
Peter Drucker
The really important things are said over cocktails and are never done.
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

Peter Drucker
Institutions mistake good intentions for objectives. They say health care that's an intention, not an objective.
Peter Drucker
The purpose of information is not knowledge. It is being able to take the right action.
Peter Drucker
A business is not defined by its name, statutes, or articles of incorporation. It is defined by the business mission. Only a clear definition of the mission and purpose of the organization makes possible clear and realistic business objectives.
Peter Drucker
Working with people is difficult, but not impossible.
Peter Drucker
The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.
Peter Drucker
Objectives are not commands they are commitments.
Peter Drucker
Checking the results of a decision against its expectations shows executives what their strengths are, where they need to improve, and where they lack knowledge or information.
Peter Drucker
The productivity of work is not the responsibility of the worker but of the manager.
Peter Drucker
