CONFERENCE ON: “Peter Drucker’s contributions to staffing



Professor Jorge Sá (PhD Columbia University; MBA Drucker University; Jean Monnet Chair) as Peter Drucker speaker just gave a talk on:  

“Peter Drucker’s contributions to staffing: putting the right person in the right place and building great teams”.

This conference focused on how to build great teams by:

  • Forgetting weaknesses and focusing on strengths;
  • Ignoring human relations/teambuilding and concentrating on the key factors of the jobs to be done; and
  • Rather than knowledge focusing on the required temperament: most business functions accept a second rate intellect but require a first rate temperament (P. Drucker)

The talk is based on Professor Sá’s book “Shakespeare, Henry V and the Lessons for Management” (cover, index and back cover below):
