Drucker's on the cover, and focused on throughout.  MH must be in heaven.  Just sayin'.

I just read the "What Would Peter Say" article and found it to be more of a tribute to Drucker than anything. What would Drucker say... "I told you so" and then several pages about all of the things he SAID in his time (which I already know from his books and the other Drucker-esque HBR articles and so on) when I was looking forward to some insight about what someone else thought he'd be saying right now, why, and what to do about it (even though he was more of an "end it with a question" type).
Other than that it was a decent synopsis of his work as it relates to our current situation.
I wonder what M^2 would have to say about this. What shouldn't we be doing anymore?... maybe it's teaching only theoretical management principles and case studies, and instead infiltrating the world with practical action-based tactics that apply to any manager via iTunes/podcasts. But what next?
