I’m reading The Daily Drucker: 366 Days of Insight and Motivation for Getting the Right Things Done by Peter Drucker right now. I don’t plan on reading it as a daily but more for insights and perhaps read five or six entries a day.
I found January 11th entry highly relevant to my experience in my work as a business consultant in the last few years.
From Drucker’s writing.
Management always lives, works, and practices in and for the institution, which is a community held together by a bond: the work bond. And precisely because the object of management is a human community held together by the work bond for a common purpose, management always deals with the nature of Man and (as all of us with any practical experience have learned) with Good and Evil, as well. I have learned more about theology as practicing management consultant than when I thought religion.
Even though I have never taught religion I agree with Drucker. I have learned far more about human nature and theology in the business world than from my Biblical education.
About a year and half ago I read People of the Lie by Scott Peck and during that time I was having a text book experience as describe in a few of the stories in the book.
