Introduction:

Peter Drucker is known as the father of modern management. A prolific writer, business

consultant and lecturer, he introduced many management concepts that have been embraced by

corporations around the world. He was a writer, management consultant, and self-described

"social ecologist." His books and scholarly and popular articles explored how humans are

organized across the business, government and the nonprofit sectors of society. His writings have

predicted many of the major developments of the late twentieth century, including privatization

and decentralization; the rise of Japan to economic world power; the decisive importance of

marketing.
