Peter Drucker
Plans are only good intentions unless they immediately degenerate into hard work.
Peter Drucker
Most of what you hear about entrepreneurshi p is all wrong. It's not magic it's not mysterious and it has nothing to do with genes. It's a discipline and, like any discipline, it can be learned.
Peter Drucker

Peter Drucker
Objectives can be compared to a compass bearing by which a ship navigates. A compass bearing is firm, but in actual navigation, a ship may veer off its course for many miles. Without a compass bearing, a ship would neither find its port nor be able to estimate the time required to get there.
Peter Drucker
Plans are worthless, but planning is invaluable.
Peter Drucker
The question that faces the strategic decision maker is not what his organisation should do tomorrow. It is, what do we have to do today to be ready for an uncertain tomorrow?
Peter Drucker
People in any organization, including bureaucrats and politicians, are always attached to the obsolete the obsolescent the things that should have worked but didn't the things that once were productive and no longer are.
Peter Drucker
The fruit of your work grows on other people's trees
Peter Drucker
To survive and succeed, every organization will have to turn itself into a change agent
Peter Drucker
The best plan is only a plan... unless it degerates into work.
Peter Drucker
The talk you hear about adapting to change is not only stupid, it's dangerous. The only way you can manage change is to create it.
Peter Drucker
Every single social and global issue of our day is a business opportunity in disguise.
Peter Drucker
The only industries that function well are the industries that take responsibility for training. The Japanese, you know, assume that when you first come to work you know absolutely nothing. School isn't preparation for work and never was.
Peter Drucker
If you're not living life on the edge, you're taking up too much space. The best way to predict the future is to create it.
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
If a business is to be considered a continuous process, instead of a series of disjointed stop-and-go events, then the economic universe in which a business operates-and all the major events within it-must have rhyme, rhythm, or reason.
