The Effective Manager in Action

In 1968 Tom Peters read (devoured!) his first management text, Peter Drucker's The Effective Executive—and was profoundly influenced by it. He was hardly alone!

Like many others, Tom Peters believes that Drucker’s historical significance will hinge on his early seminal works such as The Concept of the Corporation (1946), The Practice of Management(1954) and The Effective Executive (1967) which are the tracts that launched the 'practice of management' as we know it to this day—and probably as we will know it for decades to come.

Nearly 40 years later, with much experience and reflection behind him, Tom Peters will share with us in this keynote address what he now believes are the essential skills and attributes required to successfully become ‘An Effective Manager in Action!’
