Consulting Drucker

"Dr. Cohen became my student at the Graduate Management Center of the Claremont Graduate School after he had already achieved significant success in TWO separate careers -- as a military officer and as a businessman. He soon established himself as both an outstanding student and an outstanding scholar -- and, after attaining the PhD degree, soon thereafter as an outstanding and inspiring teacher. He has continued to produce books of true scholarship which, at the same time, have tremendous practical applications... In fact, Bill Cohen is a true inspiration for all of us in academe -- and, above all, for students who need a true role model, a true exemplar of the very best they could and should aspire to." --Peter F. Drucker, 1996

"I am constantly amazed at how Bill Cohen is able to effectively and elegantly draw on his experience as Drucker's student and then tie it together with his own research. The result is something unexpectedly elegant and highly unique. [This book] is immensely useful, enjoyable to read and genuinely motivating. If you want to apply Drucker's theories and see how to do them in the real world, this is definitely the place to start." --Jim Kouzes, co-author of best-selling The Leadership Challenge and the Dean's Executive Fellow of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University

"William Cohen's new book has brought the genius of Drucker to life for all of us. Easy to read, easy to understand and easy to use. This book should be in everybody's leadership toolbox." --Howard Behar, President, Starbucks International, retired

"Consulting Drucker is a crisp, richly detailed read about Peter Drucker, one of the great business thinkers of our time." --Reviewed by Steven Foster for IndieReader

"Not surprisingly, the book provides an overview of Drucker's life, focusing on his time after he migrated to the United States. The main emphasis is on his interactions with his students and clients. Subsequent chapters discuss management philosophy drawing from Drucker's ideas, including anecdotes from both Drucker's and the author's consulting practices as well as examples from other areas." --Reviewed by Muhammed Hassanali for San Francisco Book Review

"Peter Drucker is renowned as a management guru and has authored several books on good management practices. This book is written by one of his students (a consultant and management professor himself) in an attempt to distill Drucker's ideas in one book." --Manhattan Book Review
