Positive Leadership: The Lost Art of Management

While corporate malfeasance was once considered the exception, the American public is increasingly viewing unethical, immoral and even criminal behaviour as the norm.

According to the authors of Drucker's Lost Art of Management, business management has lost its bearings. Drawing on Drucker's work and teaching, the authors create a new philosophy of management based on the principles leaders throughout history have relied on to be effective, both indvidually and as custodians of civilised society and healthy economies; principles such as societal values and standards, individual character development and the use and abuse of power.

The authors have done an excellent job of connecting Drucker's vision of leadership dominated by integrity and high moral values with the discontinuities created by an ever changing world.
