"One does not "manage" people. The task..." - Quote by Peter Drucker

“Economists think the poor need them to tell them that they are poor.”

“Successful leaders don't start out asking, 'What do I want to do?' They ask, 'What needs to be done?' Then they ask, 'Of those things that would make a difference, which are right for me?'”

“Whenever anything is being accomplished, it is being done, I have learned, by a monomaniac with a mission.”

“Shall I pass by and leave you lying there because of the expedition you led against Greece, or shall I set you up again because of your magnanimity and your virtues in other respects?”

“The greatest characters the world has known, have rose on the democratic floor. Aristocracy has not been able to keep a proportionate pace with democracy.”

“People have a seed to success within them. Most never find it and therefore fail to reach their potential. Occasionally, a leader discovers it and helps that individual develop it. For both, they now can fulfill the purpose for which they are born.”

“I could as easily bail out the Potomac River with a teaspoon as attend to all the details of the army.”

“No fools are so difficult to manage as those with some brains.”

“A manager says 'go,' but a leader says 'let's go'.”
