About the book

Peter Drucker argues that effective management depends on habits people can learn and practice. He examines how executives use their time, decide what they can contribute, apply individual strengths, establish priorities, and make sound decisions. Drawing examples from business and government, he explains how to convert ability and knowledge into useful results while recognizing work that consumes attention without advancing an organization's purpose.
