Author Cohen, who has written other books on Drucker, summarizes the ideas of pioneering management and leadership thinker Peter Drucker; Cohen is in a special position to do this because he was Drucker's first executive PhD graduate. While much of Drucker's writing concentrated on theory, the author draws on Drucker's books and articles to summarize Drucker's practical guidelines and problem-solving ideas. Material is grouped in sections on people, management, marketing and innovation, and the organization, offering advice on area such as business ethics, employee engagement, dealing with change, and crisis leadership. The author sprinkles in anecdotes on learning from and working with Drucker, and gives contemporary examples from business and the military.
