Peter Drucker: A Foundation for Employee Engagement

October 30, 2009 by David Zinger 2 Comments

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.

How are you managing employee engagement?

    The wisdom of Peter Drucker regarding management is about as firm a foundation as there is for leaders.
