Executive Class Rules to Follow

The omnipresent Peter Drucker recently penned an article for the WSJ on the basic 8 pratices of effective leaders, called The Rules of Executive Class.

For those of you that are Drucker fans, and those who've not had the pleasure of reading much drucker, have a small feast on these ideas:


  • Ask "What needs to be done?"
  • Ask "What is right for the enterprise?"
  • Develop action plans.
  • Take responsibility for decisions. (more on this today from Ohio State University)
  • Take responsibility for communicating.
  • Focus on opportunities, not problems.
  • Make meetings productive.
  • Think and say "We."

In an interesting twist, Hal Macomber adapted this to project management executives in his adaptation,
The Rules of Project Executive Class.
