Peter F. Drucker was a renowned management consultant and author born in Austria in 1909. He made numerous seminal contributions to the field of management through his writings and consulting work. Some of his most influential ideas included decentralization, treating workers as assets, and viewing corporations as human communities rather than just profit-making machines. His theories on knowledge workers, non-profits, marketing, and strategic planning remain highly relevant today. Drucker was considered a visionary for introducing many concepts decades before they became widely accepted.

- 6. Ideas through Drucker’s Writings A profound skepticism about macroeconomic theory. Drucker contended that economists of all schools fail to explain significant aspects of modern economies. A desire to make everything as simple as possible. According to Drucker, corporations tend to produce too many products, hire employees they don't need (when a better solution would be contracting out ), and expand into economic sectors that they should stay out of. The need for "planned abandonment." Corporations as well as governments have a natural human tendency to cling to "yesterday's successes" rather than seeing when they are no longer useful. The lasting contribution of the "father of scientific management ", Frederick Winslow Taylor . Although Drucker had little experience with the analysis of blue-collar work (he spent his career analyzing managerial work), he credited Taylor with originating the seminally important idea that work can be broken down, analyzed, and improved. He wrote extensively about Management by objectives A company's primary responsibility is to serve its customers. Profit is not the primary goal.
- 7. Contributions made Drucker’s primary contribution is not a single idea, but rather an entire body of work that has one gigantic advantage: nearly all of it is essentially right. Drucker has an uncanny ability to develop insights about the workings of the social world, and to later be proved right by history
- 8. The timeline It was Drucker who introduced the idea of decentralization -- in the 1940s -- which became a bedrock principle for virtually every large organization in the world. He was the first to assert -- in the 1950s -- that workers should be treated as assets, not as liabilities to be eliminated . He originated the view of the corporation as a human community -- again, in the 1950s -- built on trust and respect for the worker and not just a profit-making machine, a perspective that won Drucker an almost godlike reverence among the Japanese
- 9. The timeline….Contd He first made clear -- still the '50s -- that there is "no business without a customer," a simple notion that ushered in a new marketing mind-set. He argued in the 1960s -- long before others -- for the importance of substance over style, for institutionalized practices over charismatic, cult leaders. And it was Drucker again who wrote about the contribution of knowledge workers -- in the 1970s -- long before anyone knew or understood how knowledge would trump raw material as the essential capital of the New Economy.

- 12. I am more an “insultant” than a “consultant”…I scold people for a fee. Marketing should have just one concern – the customer. Consider this: “The purpose of business is not to make a sale, but to make and keep a customer.” “ The aim of marketing is to know and understand the customer so well the product or service fits him and sells itself.” Best of all: "Marketing is the whole business seen from the customer's point of view."
