Discover the Origins of Business Terms: How Peter Drucker Shaped Modern Management

We have read his work. Here's an article about the terms he coined. This was remarkable when he had defined them. Read about words such as Bystander, Lifelong learning, profitability, Schumpeter, Zen, Yardsticks, and many more. What makes this article interesting is they share the background to the words as well.

Much of the business lexicon bruited about in offices—from "knowledge worker" to "management by objective"—can be traced to Druckerian coinage. For decades, harried CEOs have restructured their work lives based on Drucker's almost Zen insights about efficiency and time management. His pronouncements on customers, marketing, and profitability deserve to be framed and hung in every corner office to remind business leaders where their priorities should lie.

Thank you for the appreciation. Please share which word resonates most with you. I am sure out of so many, there are a few we all use on a daily basis. Most of the time, we never thought about who invented them 

Looking forward to hearing from you all.
