Peter Drucker (1909-Nov-19 :: 2005-Nov-11) RIP

Peter Drucker

Peter Drucker died last Friday. For those who do not know who he was, he was a very influential professor of corporate economics and management. His theories on labor, the corporation, government, and management, were far ahead of his time. He was a great believer in people, and simplification. He abhorred massive management, corporations that try to do too much, and companies that treated labor as a disposable commodity.

Here are:

• a brief Wiki summary of his career and accomplishments.
• His own corporate management website
• A CNN Obit with some of Drucker's takes on recent events.
• An excellent LA Times obit on him.
