Synopsis
Managing in Turbulent Times tackles the key issues facing managers in the 1990s: how to manage in rapidly changing environments. This seminal and prophetic book laid the foundation for a generation of writers on change management.
This book concerns the immediate future of business, society and the economy. The one certainty about the times ahead, says Drucker, is that they will be turbulent times. In turbulent times the first task of management is to make sure of the organizations capacity for survival, to make sure of its structural strength and soundness, its capacity to survive a blow, to adapt to sudden change and to avail itself of new opportunities.
The author is concerned with action rather than understanding, with decisions rather than analysis. It aims at being a practical book for the decision maker, whether in the private or the public sector.

Review
"Peter Drucker was the first of the analytical futurists and the first of the management philosophers. And for me he is still the best."-- Reginald Jones, "Wall Street Journal""A thought-provoking book for all in management concerned with future environments...In his usual thoroughness, Drucker pinpoints topics important to those managers who wish to see their institutions survive. Strategies are presented for dealing with structural shifts in population, production techniques, and consumer markets, along with concerns of inflation, productivity, and operation in a world economy."-- "Library Journal"
