RIP Peter Drucker

Peter F. Drucker died on November 11th. He was visionary business guru for whom I have a tremendous degree of respect. He died at age 95 after a very long career. I own a copy of each of his books and many of his magazine articles. I have read his books for pleasure going back as far as the early 80s. I have also read his books as part of a graduate degree program, which is to say, I studied them deeply. He was on target, insightful and inspiring. I always thought of him as wise. RIP Peter F. Drucker.

The Washington Post does a good job of summarizing his life’s work and its impact in their obituary

"There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all." - Peter Drucker
