Peter F. Drucker Quotes

«Knowledge has to be improved, challenged, and increased constantly, or it vanishes.»
«The leaders who work most effectively, it seems to me, never say 'I'. And that's not because they have trained themselves not to say 'I'. They don't think 'I'. They think 'we'; they think 'team'. They understand their job to be to make the team function. They accept responsibility and don't sidestep it, but 'we' gets the credit.... This is what creates trust, what enables you to get the task done.»
«The most important thing in communication is to hear what isn't being said.»
«The purpose of business is to create and keep a customer.»
«No institution can possibly survive if it needs geniuses or supermen to manage it. It must be organized in such a way as to be able to get along under a leadership composed of average human beings.»
«Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection will come even more effective action.»
«The productivity of work is not the responsibility of the worker but of the manager.»
«Efficiency is doing things right; effectiveness is doing the right things.»
«Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.»
«Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes; but no plans.»
