Previously unpublished talks from the Father of Modern Management
Throughout his professional life, Peter F. Drucker inspired millions of
business leaders not only through his famous writings but also through his lectures and
keynotes. These speeches contained some of his most valuable insights, but had never been
published in book form—until now.
The Drucker Lectures features more than 30 talks from one of management's most
important figures. Drawn from the Drucker Archives at the Drucker Institute at Claremont
Graduate University, the lectures showcase Drucker's wisdom, wit, profundity, and
prescience on such topics as:
- Politics and economics of the environment
- Knowledge workers and the Knowledge Society
- Computer and information literacy
- Managing nonprofit organizations
- Globalization
During his life, Drucker well understood that over the last 150 years the world
had become a society of large institutions—and that they would only become larger and
more powerful. He contended that unless these institutions were effectively managed and
ethically led, the good health of society as a whole would be in peril. His prediction is
unfolding before our eyes.
The Drucker Lectures is a timely, instructive book proving that responsible
behavior and good business can, in fact, exist hand in hand.
