Would you like to know what Peter Drucker considered to be one of the most important characteristics of a good leader? Check out this podcast!

During this 30 minute podcast, I chat with Jeffrey Krames, author of Inside Drucker's Brain. If you are a manager or leader or aspire to become one, this is a book you will want to have because Jeffrey Krames has taken the time and care to distill the very best of Peter Drucker's management wisdom into one book. Drucker wrote nearly 40 books about management, so there was a lot to distill! Jeffrey spent a full day with Drucker, at his home, just a few years before Drucker died - a special honor and accomplishment since Drucker was known for refusing requests for interviews.

My conversation with Jeffrey was fun and provocative and I think you will enjoy listening to Jeffrey's stories about Drucker and his theories about management and about how they are still so relevant today. Also check out Jeffrey's blog here where he posts about Drucker and the subject of business book publishing (Jeffrey has written several business books and is the Editorial Director of Portfolio, a Penguin imprint that specializes in business books).
