Article commemorating Peter F. Drucker's 100th birthday, discussing his academic importance and legacy. Rick Wartzman reflects on Drucker's teachings in the midst of the Great Recession, and in a much more and acceleratingly digital age. Specifically, Wartzman highlights how Drucker's endorsement of a healthy balance in seemingly opposed corporate motives, such as profitability versus other responsibilities and the common good, can help to lessen the impact of or avoid global economic crises and domestic downturns. He then goes on to describe how the Drucker Institute has created downloadable apps that tie Drucker's thought to issues of today, alongside other developments of the Institute, particularly the growing Drucker Society Global Network.
