Peter Drucker's mantras for success
September 24, 2008
Any organisation develops people: It has no choice. It either helps them grow or stunts them.
Don't take on things you don't believe in and that you yourself are not good at. Learn to say no.
If you can't establish clear career priorities by yourself, use friends and business acquaintances as a sounding board. They will want to help. Ask them to help you determine your 'first things' and 'second things.' Or seek an outside coach or advisor to help you focus. Because if you don't know what your 'first things' are, you simply can't do them FIRST.
Teaching is the only major occupation of man for which we have not yet developed tools that make an average person capable of competence and performance. In teaching we rely on the ‘naturals', the ones who somehow know how to teach.
Don't travel too much. Organise your travel. It is important that you see people and that you are seen by people maybe once or twice a year. Otherwise, don't travel. Make them come to see you.
