Description
In this audio recording Peter F. Drucker interviews Bradley L. Jacobs in his audio book, “The Nonprofit Drucker.” This tape is part of the series, “Performance and Results.” Drucker begins by introducing Jacobs as a politician in Orange County, California whose responsibility reaches over 2 million people. Jacobs discusses how to recover from a political scandal, and his own experience with dissent from workers and top management. He talks about gradual changes he made to his organization, and that slow steady progress was the key. He describes the use of computers and technology to help workers. Jacobs says that building an organization is like building a sports team and that camaraderie and dependence on one another is essential. He ends the interview by advising that superiors must give employees freedom within a government organization.
