Peter Drucker: A Foundation for Employee Engagement

These two snippets are from  Rosabeth Moss Kanter on 2 management keys from Peter Drucker:

Management should be a profession, and executives and managers should remember that their primary job is to look out for the long-term health of their organizations. That means looking outside their walls at society and taking responsibility for well-being, not just wealth.

Knowledge workers cannot be controlled; they must be motivated. Such employees must see a purpose more meaningful than personal profit. When the game is only about money, disparities in society get worse as the favored grab the largest share.
