Publisher's Synopsis
The name Drucker is synonymous with management. His many works stand as classics in management literature. Today more than ever, Peter Drucker is being looked to and listened to by business leaders and economic scholars grappling with the challenge of change. This major new book brings together his latest stimulating and enlightening views on the new world order for business and on management imperatives of the 1990s and beyond. Here, completely unabridged in Bookcassette Audio, he brings clear-sighted analysis and practical inspiration to an interesting array of subjects: the end of the era of the blue-collar worker; the ultimate bankruptcy of economic pump priming by the federal government; the myths about the Japanese economic juggernaut; the lessons that nonprofit enterprises can teach big business; the changing attitudes of middle managers as the doctrine of company loyalty gives way to the demand for rewarding achievement; and many more.
