This is a video recording of a question and answer session with Peter Drucker at Edward Jones. Drucker addresses such topics as the financial services industry in the next few years, the effects of focusing on new IRs at the expense of successful IRs, the sustainability of the Edward Jones culture, how to help bring out strengths in individuals, communicating the Edward Jones brand, balancing common training and specialization, and disagreements between Drucker and the direction of Edward Jones. Drucker also discusses methods of learning, and states that no American president is both a reader and a listener. According to Drucker, Franklin Roosevelt, Lyndon B. Johnson, and Ronald Reagan better absorbed information by listening (he notes that Nancy Reagan a reader), while Harry S. Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and John F. Kennedy were readers (Kennedy could listen to Robert Kennedy, however).
