This is a dialogue across East and West,and a sincere remembrance of trust, responsibility, and mission.From classroom to life, from ideas to practice,the book records not only Drucker’s thought,but the legacy of a belief at its core:that management exists to develop human beings.In 1999, Peter Drucker, the father of modern management, embarked on a profound dialogue with Chinese entrepreneur Shao Minglo over a shared vision for education. Drucker made a solemn commitment: to serve as Shao’s pro bono advisor for the rest of his life. In the years that followed, the two met regularly in California to discuss management education in China, economic realities, and organizational culture—forging a deep friendship that transcended both culture and age.This book records that precious journey. It illustrates not only how Drucker translated ideas into practice, but also portrays his sincerity, warmth, and humanity. He held a deep hope for the future of management in China, remained steadfast i

“Dr. Cohen relinquished his role as president several years ago. Even in the final months of his life, he remained engaged and active, not ready to retire. His final book, ‘Be All You Can Be and Get Ready for the Future,’ is a testament to his enduring contribution.” Minglo Shao, Co-founder of CIAM“Bill’s monthly letter always contributed thoughts that were practical and served as reminders to management artisans.”Len Kwiatkowski, Chairman, Board of Trustees, CIAM“In addition to his record of service, Bill Cohen was a mentor, interpreting the teachings of Peter Drucker by sharing anecdotes that guided his subordinates and students while instilling the values of integrity, courage and resilience.”Ron Fogleman, General, USAF. Retired 15th Chief of StaffThis book is a collection of management essays written by Dr. William A. Cohen, Major General, USAF (Ret.), in the final years of his life.

本書特色「企業管理」（business management）這個科目包括兩大範疇：一為「企業」（business）的領域，二為「管理」（management）的內涵。就學科的分類而言，即為「企業概論」與「管理概論」兩個科目。近年來各大國營事業的考科不論其名稱為何，如：「管理學」、「企業管理」或「企業管理概論」，幾乎都以「管理功能」為主要的命題範疇，因此讀者只要確實研讀本書必能掌握考試要點。且本書於各主題結束後特別將近年國營事業「管理學」的試題歸納與分類，以利讀者掌握命題的分布與焦點。另外，「企業功能」（business functions）也是要提防出題的範圍，但其中又以「行銷管理」（marketing management）的考題為大宗，特別是針對「行銷」方面的職缺甄試，讀者須特別留意。

To Know the Real Drucker: Eight Articles Will Help You is a collection of eight articles by Peter Drucker: “The Unfashionable Kierkegaard” (1949) and its introduction (1992), “The New World-View” (1957), “From Analysis to Perception: The New World View” (1989), “Reflections of a Social Ecologist” (1992), “What Is a Functioning Society?” (1942), “From Rousseau to Hitler” (1942), “The Human Situation Today” (1957), and “Management as Social Function and Liberal Art” (1989). Readers can find the source of each articles in the table of contents and editor’s note per article. Of the eight articles, only the last one is from Drucker’s works on management. The other seven are from his books on society, politics, and economics. Although the world has hailed him as the “Father of Modern Management,” he considered himself a “social ecologist.” This book will play an indispensable role in explaining the reason for that and in further understanding the foundation of faith and worldview which Druck

Time is our biggest worry: there is too little of it. The acclaimed Guardian writer Oliver Burkeman offers a lively, entertaining philosophical guide to time and time management, setting aside superficial efficiency solutions in favor of reckoning with and finding joy in the finitude of human lifeThe average human lifespan is absurdly, insultingly brief. Assuming you live to be eighty, you have just over four thousand weeks.Nobody needs telling there isn’t enough time. We’re obsessed with our lengthening to-do lists, our overfilled inboxes, work-life balance, and the ceaseless struggle against distraction; and we’re deluged with advice on becoming more productive and efficient, and “life hacks” to optimize our days. But such techniques often end up making things worse. The sense of anxious hurry grows more intense, and still the most meaningful parts of life seem to lie just beyond the horizon. Still, we rarely make the connection between our daily struggles with time and the ultimate
