The Effective Executive Book ReviewAug 22, 2008
I am still reading this book; there are so many insights that I find myself highlighting and writing them down; then I go back to review them over and over. For the person who wants to be an Effective Executive or just an effective individual I would recommend you read this book. You can just read this book you have to put the information into practice. It is a text book for the effective leader in you. You will go back to it over and over again to ensure you are doing the right things to become more effective.
This is the best book on "Leadership" even after 40 yearsJul 21, 2008
Skip all the "hype" about leadership theory. Drucker is the king. Years since this book was written - it is all about Executive Effectiveness. Well isn't that the same as "leadership" but just without all the hype? You bet. Buy and read this and burn your leadership mental masturbation books.
If you have one shelf for books, this should be on it.Jul 08, 2008
If you're looking for concise, simple dialogue on what it means to be effective and how to parlay that into your work life, here it is. If you are looking for a fashionable, faddy, flashy Seth-Godin-type mantra to chant, you will be vastly disappointed and fantastically bored.
To those who are serious students of business and it's execution and are willing to do what it takes to be leaders, this is one of probably 3-5 books on the required reading list. Read through it quickly at your own peril, for amazing gems are buried mid-paragraph in the most seemingly innocuous paragraphs.
Now for the love of effectiveness, please buy, read and apply this to yourself so I don't have to do business with you sloths anymore!
Excellent book on management skillsMay 27, 2008
Very good book on the true management skills required by any and every manager. Drucker clearly points out that not all great managers were created the same....but most share certain traits. An excellent, must read for any and all managers everywhere!
 Long lasting advice for novice managersMay 04, 2008
Excellent advice from a incredible coach. From time management to management contribution this book offers what you need to achieve management positions. A must.
