“Management is about human beings. Its task is to make people capable of joint performance, to make their strengths effective and their weaknesses irrelevant.”
Peter F. Drucker is considered the father of modern management, and his time-tested doctrine is the cornerstone of your education at the Drucker School. He was an Austrian-born immigrant, a respected mentor, and a brilliant man who placed a high premium on being ethical, globally minded, and socially conscious.
As a writer, teacher, consultant, and unparalleled management guru, Drucker influenced governments, non-profits, and corporations, including Edward Jones, General Electric, Toyota, Coca-Cola, Intel, Girl Scouts of the USA, and countless others. He taught at Claremont Graduate University from 1971 until 2003, passing away two years later at the age of 95.
The Drucker name commands international respect because his management philosophy makes sense, gets results, and empowers everyone in an organization to make a lasting difference.
