Drucker's Five Most Important Questions

Organizations & Individuals, Know Thyself- Transformative Introspection for Organizations and Self

Introduction

Our organizations, in which we work or we own, are our workplaces and we spent our most of the productive time there. But, even after committing a big part of our life to our companies, institutions, associations, corporations, and organizations, we know a little about these places. Few people in most of the organizations can understand the purpose of their entity or the objective of their work. In the case of understanding the values, culture or defining the customers of the organization the number is even less. It is clear that these people feel less connected or even disconnected from the organizations.

Same is true for a large percentage of humanity, which does not know the objective of their life or work. Many people feel that their destinies are being controlled by other people, and they can do nothing about it. People complain about their life, without knowing what they want, from life or work. They have difficulty in getting clarity in any area of their life.

In this course, we will try to bring that clarity into the minds of the managers of the organizations, and normal people, to get hold of their lives. We will use the basic fundamental model designed by Peter Drucker, a late management guru, who asked the fundamental five questions for the NGOs and nonprofit organizations. These questions are holistic and touch upon every area of the organization and a person’s life. Answering these questions is not simple, even though the questions look easy. They dig deep to the foundations of our basic assumptions and present actions. You need to be ready to answer a lot of questions in this course. But after completing this course, and when many questions are answered, you would start to see things differently, and would get more control over your life, and your actions.

We have also attached workbooks, to help you extract more value out of the course. You can either take the printout of these workbooks, or answer the question digitally. You will also find some of the posters attached with the course, which you can utilize to remember the concepts and major points.

I know that you are excited about this course, I am too. So, let’s not wait any further and dive straight into the course.
