Insightful Stuff that Peter Drucker said:

* Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.
* There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.
* A manager's task is to make the strengths of people effective and their weakness irrelevant--and that applies fully as much to the manager's boss as it applies to the manager's subordinates.
* Management is so much more than exercising rank and privilege, ... it is much more than "making deals." Management affects people and their lives.
* Rank does not confer privilege or give power. It imposes responsibility.
* Executives owe it to the organization and to their fellow workers not to tolerate nonperforming individuals in important jobs.
* Most of what we call management consists of making it difficult for people to get their work done.
* The most efficient way to produce anything is to bring together under one management as many as possible of the activities needed to turn out the product.
* Increasingly, politics is not about "who gets what, when, how" but about values, each of them considered to be absolute. Politics is about "the right to life"...It is about the environment. It is about gaining equality for groups alleged to be oppressed...None of these issues is economic. All are fundamentally moral.
* What's absolutely unforgivable is the financial benefit top management people get for laying off people. There is no excuse for it. No justification. This is morally and socially unforgivable, and we will pay a heavy price for it.
* Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes... but no plans.
* The best way to predict the future is to create it.
