The best of Peter F. Drucker's articles on management, all in one place.
That 'management' exists as a concept, a practice, and a profession is largely due to the thinking of Peter F. Drucker. For nearly half a century, he inspired and educated managers-and powerfully shaped the nature of business-with his iconic articles in Harvard Business Review.
Through the lens of Drucker's broad vision, this volume presents an opportunity to trace the great shifts in organizations in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries-from manufacturing to knowledge work, from career-length employee tenures to short-term contract relationships, from command-and-control structures to flatter organizations that call for new leadership techniques.
These articles also offer a firm and practical grasp of the role of the manager and the executive today-their responsibilities, their relationships, their decisions, and detailed processes that can make their work more effective.
A celebrated thinker at his best, in this volume Drucker paints a clear and comprehensive picture of management thinking and practice-both as it is and as it will be.

Das unverzichtbare Handbuch für den Manager.
Viele Managementbücher handeln davon, andere zu führen. Thema dieses Hörbuches ist dagegen die Frage, wie man sich selbst führen kann, um wirksamer und zielgerichteter zu arbeiten.
'The Effective Executive' gehört zu den wichtigsten Werken von Peter F. Drucker, dem 'Vater des modernen Managements'.
In gewisser Weise ist es sogar das wichtigste der mehr als 40 Bücher, die er in seinem Leben schrieb. Denn dieses Buch enthält die auch heute noch gültigen Antworten auf die Fragen:
- Wie werde ich effektiv?
- Was muss ich wissen und tun, um in einer Organisation Ergebnisse zu erzielen und damit erfolgreich zu sein?
Effektivitätsmängel sind die häufigste Ursache für das Scheitern von Führungskräften und auch für die so weit verbreitete Umsetzungsschwäche von Organisationen. Die Fähigkeit effektiv und effizient zu sein ist für praktisch jedermann nötig, damit er oder sie in einer Organisation überhaupt angestellt werden kann.
Um effektiv zu sein, reichen Intelligenz, Fleiß und Wissen allein nicht aus. Effektivität ist eine andere, eine eigene Qualität.
In diesem Hörbuch erfahren Sie, wie man seine eigenen Stärken in Leistung umwandelt und dadurch Erfolg hat sowie Sinn und Erfüllung findet.
Dieses Buch erschien im englischen Original unter dem Titel “The Effective Executive. The Definitive Guide to Getting the Right Things Done”

A handsome, commemorative edition of Peter F. Drucker’s timeless classic work on leadership and management, with a foreword by Jim Collins.
What makes an effective executive?
For decades, Peter F. Drucker was widely regarded as "the dean of this country’s business and management philosophers" (Wall Street Journal). In this concise and brilliant work, he looks to the most influential position in management—the executive.
The measure of the executive, Drucker reminds us, is the ability to "get the right things done." This usually involves doing what other people have overlooked as well as avoiding what is unproductive. Intelligence, imagination, and knowledge may all be wasted in an executive job without the acquired habits of mind that mold them into results.
Drucker identifies five practices essential to business effectiveness that can—and must—be mastered:
Managing time;
Choosing what to contribute to the organization;
Knowing where and how to mobilize strength for best effect;
Setting the right priorities;
Knitting all of them together with effective decision-making
Ranging across the annals of business and government, Drucker demonstrates the distinctive skill of the executive and offers fresh insights into old and seemingly obvious business situations.
In The Last of All Possible Worlds, royalty, bankers, lovers, and wives intertwine to create a vivid portrait of Europe in the early 1900s. We meet wise and worldly Prince Sobieski, Vienna's ambassador in London, his enchanting wife, her English lover, and her enigmatic lifelong companion, Josefa. When Sobieski's illegitimate daughter makes a demand of her influential father, the unspoken rules of the family are challenged. Sobieski's world is further upset when two powerful merchant bankers, the tragic McGregor Hinton and the ambitious Julius von Mosenthal, arrive in London-both with their own requirements of the prince.
The Temptation to Do Good tells the story of Father Heinz Zimmerman, the well-regarded president of an American Catholic university. When he attempts to help a chemistry teacher who has been denied tenure he accidentally opens the door to the underlying tensions in the university.

Drucker identifies five practices essential to business effectiveness that can, and must, be learned:
