PRAISE FOR PETER F. DRUCKER: "The man who invented management." -- Businessweek "Drucker gave us the language, the metaphor, the lens, the understanding of the role of management as the critical function." -- Jim Collins, author, Good to Great: Why Some Companies Make the Leap ... and Others Don't "Like many philosophers, he spoke in plain language that resonated with ordinary managers. Consequently, simple statements from him have influenced untold numbers of daily actions; they did mine over decades." -- Andy Grove, founder, Intel Corp. "The king of management gurus." -- The Economist
