Managing Oneself

by Mike Hunter

Peter Drucker is widely regarded as the father of modern management, offering penetrating insights into business that still resonate today. But Drucker also offers deep wisdom on how to manage our personal lives and how to become more effective leaders. In these two classic articles from Harvard Business Review, Drucker reveals the keys to becoming one’s own chief executive officer as well as a better leader of others. “Managing Oneself” identifies the probing questions one needs to ask to gain the insights essential for taking charge of one’s career, while “What Makes an Effective Executive” outlines the key behaviors one must adopt in order to lead. Together, they chart a powerful course to help one carve out one’s place in the world.
