Posted by Tim Raines in: business, management , add a comment“He is purely and simply the most important developer of effective management and of effective public policy in the 20th century,” said former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich of Mr. Drucker.
Recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, Mr. Drucker was a visionary whose ideas included: dedicated employees as the key to success of any business; marketing starts with the customer; and every enterprise is a learning and teaching institution.
From Yahoo News, “Drucker showed a knack for identifying sea changes in business and economics years in advance. He foresaw the emergence of a new type of worker whose occupation would be based on knowledge, not physical labor or management.”
