Peter Drucker
There is a point of complexity beyond which a business is no longer manageable.
Peter Drucker
A manager's task is to make the strengths of people effective and their weakness irrelevant - and that applies fully as much to the manager's boss as it applies to the manager's subordinates.
Peter Drucker
The only skill that will be important in the 21st century is the skill of learning new skills.Everythi ng else will become obsolete over time.
Peter Drucker
For new technology to replace old, it has to have at least ten times the benefit.
Peter Drucker
The honest work of yesterday has lost its social status, its social esteem.
Peter Drucker
We have tried to substitute mass for purpose. We have tried to regain military potency of defense by making it gigantic, unwieldy, complex. It never works.
Peter Drucker
There are no creeds in mathematics.
