ON THE PROFESSION OF MANAGEMENT

Book Abstract by: educaweb    

Original Author: PETER DRUCKER
Extract n° 7
We observe that arriving to the last extract
of this excellent pilot work of the evolution of management during last century, we are still with the starting point: What is management? Is a whole of techniques and analytical tools for management? It is yes, but it is necessary to take account of the essential principles:

It becomes universal culture but respecting the identity of each nation qnd valorizing the member's engagement about specific clear and realizable objectives.

One does not make call solely with the qualifying titles and the seniority, but also with the capacity topresent an action plan on terms of the strategies of development of the company to which one claims to be leading and one also calls upon the practical references. If the knowledge were a capacity which the holder wants to only keep secret for him with much of arrogance and contempt for the others (to draw aside the possible competitors), today on the contrary reality capacity is to be able to share its knowledge with its fellow-members, to popularize it and facilitate its transfer to the practical field. It became a whole art which to be able to manage the knowledge like makes it suitably a good pedagogue . we still refer to the experiments of Japanese who controls art to assimilate a knowledge and to make it operational and productive
