Peter Drucker discusses the following during his lecture: asking what the right questions to ask are, and what assumptions do we have to make; the Peter principle; changing the way one does something when getting a promotion; George Champion and Chase; experience with a demanding boss; how dissent leads you to look at alternatives; the option to do nothing; not eliminating opinions; the idea that people can be totally objective as a total misunderstanding; an untested hypothesis; adoptive parents as customers to adoption agencies; a major innovation of Xerox; buying satisfaction and not things; General Electric and street lighting; pricing in relation to the service you get; customers as not irrational and lazy manufacturers; operating budgets; and the traditional inclination to say no to bond issues. The recording begins with the lecture in progress, and ends while the lecture is still in progress.
