Four quotes from management guru Peter F. Drucker (1909-2005):

Because the purpose of business is to create a customer, the business enterprise has two — and only two — basic functions: marketing and innovation.

All economic activity is by definition "high risk." And defending yesterday — that is, not innovating — is far more risky than making tomorrow.

Large organizations cannot be versatile. A large organization is effective through its mass rather than through its agility. Fleas can jump many times their own height, but not an elephant.

The better a man is, the more mistakes will he make — for the more new things he will try. I would never promote a man into a top-level job who had not made mistakes, and big ones at that. Otherwise he is sure to be mediocre.
