Managing in the Next Society

More about the book

Following in the successful vein of <i>Managing for the Future</i> (1992) and <i>Managing in a Time of Great Change</i> (1995), the incomparable Peter Drucker is back with fresh thoughts, insights, and knowledge about the ever-changing business society around us and the ever-expanding management roles required of us all-chiefs, executives, managers, and knowledge workers alike. Two main themes are explored in many of the chapters in <i>Managing in the Next Society</i>: the rapidly expanding information shock wave that had its Internet Big Bang as recently as 1995; and the changing shape of our society to come-six major trends that are rapidly transforming our world into what Peter Drucker calls The Next Society.
