Peter Drucker discusses the following during his lecture: asking what the demographics for a marketplace are; hospital location; service businesses and local demographics; long range and short range decisions; calculating how many years a given sum will double with a given interest rate; Sears versus Marks and Spencer; Harlem in the late 1920s; the cockroach and butterfly story; the alternative to do nothing; and keeping one eye open for what is possible. The recording begins with the lecture in progress, and ends while the lecture is still in progress.
