"The moment people talk of "implementing" instead..." - Quote by Peter Drucker

“What managers decide to stop doing is often more important than what they decide to do.”

“Our most important education system is in the employees' own organization.”

“Leaders grow; they are not made.”

“The nine most terrifying words in the English language are "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help."”

“Farmers have more Associations, and Bureaus, and Clubs, than they have pitchforks.”

“The United States investigates everything - usually after it's dead.”

“As the biggest library if it is in disorder is not as useful as a small but well-arranged one, so you may accumulate a vast amount of knowledge but it will be of far less value to you than a much smaller amount if you have not thought it over for yourself; because only through ordering what you know by comparing every truth with every other truth can you take complete possession of your knowledge and get it into your power. You can think about only what you know, so you ought to learn something; on the other hand, you can know only what you have thought about.”

“Our society consists exclusively of free working people of cities and villages, workers, peasants, intelligentsia. Each of these strata may have its special interests and express them in numerous existing organizations.”

“Teamwork is neither "good" nor "desirable." It is a fact. Wherever people work together or play together they do so as a team. Which team to use for what purpose is a crucial, difficult and risky decision that is even harder to unmake. Managements have yet to learn how to make it.”
