Management How-to at its best,
By
This review is from: The Practice Of Management (Paperback)
Dr. Peter Drucker has written a book that should be used as a reference for any manager of any skill set. His knowledge and insight is as relevant today as it was almost 60 years ago. A certain must read for all new managers and an excellent reference for those of us who have been at it a while. Dr. Drucker uses plain language and plain examples to illustrate the needs of management to stick to its three main objectives. Read the book and find out just how valuable his insight and experience is to your professional career.

The origin of most of today's best sellers,
This review is from: The Practice Of Management (Paperback)
It's really susprising how a book dated 54 can be so modern. Throughout its pages you can see paragraphs that simply are the source of many later killing books. Mac Gregor's theory, Hertzberg's ergonomic factor, the vision of Ted Levitt about marketing myopia, the search for simplicity, the moder concept of ethical behavior of companies and so many others. Really amazing how Drucker already peeked on these points many years ago. what new have all those new gurus been speaking about?.Nevertheless, the most striking issue it's his lookout for human vertues in managers. Integrity anf character are the main tools of the right manager. We are still on the search for them!!!.

The Most original work on management ever written,
This review is from: The Practice Of Management (Paperback)
Peter Drucker needs no introduction. His works have shaped the management thought and philosophy for the last half a century. What he discusses in this volume, other management thinkers will find only 40 years later. A must read for understanding- What management and business is all about.
