Description and Reviews
From The Publisher:
Following in the successful vein of Managing for the Future (1992) and Managing in a Time of Great Change (1995), the incomparable Peter Drucker is back with fresh thoughts, insights, and knowledge about the ever-changing business society around us and the ever-expanding management roles required of us all-chiefs, executives, managers, and knowledge workers alike.
Two main themes are explored in many of the chapters in Managing in the Next Society: the rapidly expanding information shock wave that had its Internet Big Bang as recently as 1995; and the changing shape of our society to come-six major trends that are rapidly transforming our world into what Peter Drucker calls The Next Society.

Reviews
"True to form, his often deeply contrarian insights are authoritatively represented, backed up with rich historical precedents and persuasively argued."
—Money Magazine
"Readers will emerge from this collection of previously published articles feeling stimulated..."
— Hardy Green, Business Week
