Peter F. Drucker on Practical Leadership

One of the most influential business books of our time by the founder of modern management.

Practical Leadership (formerly published as Managing for the Future) brings together a collection of essays that exhibit Drucker's most stimulating and enlightening insight and advice on the four forces that shape business: economics, people at work, management concepts and practices, and the ever-evolving shape of corporate organization.

Drucker brings clear-sighted analysis and practical inspiration to an arresting array of subjects that remain as relevant today as when he first wrote about them: the end of the era of the blue-collar worker, the lessons that nonprofit enterprises offer big business, the place of a national economy in the multinational corporate world, and the formula for excellence in American exports. Each essay yields conclusions that are timeless and insightful.
