Genre : Business & Investing
Author : Peter Drucker

Amazing book. Drucker writes timeless management principles and this one focuses on getting the right things done to make oneself and one’s team productive. The basic principles to become effective and to do the right things require a manager to become effective by doing the following:
1. Manage time
2. Focus on contributions and results
3. Build on strengths
4. Set the right priorities
5. Make effective decisions

The book outlines very clearly the actions you need to take in each of these areas and really stresses how the tasks and things you take on as a manager must be the right things. That is where effectiveness is far better than efficiency. I really enjoyed Drucker’s book and it is an excellent management tool to learn and practice on a day to day basis.
