A journey that sculpted their lives as they scrupulously prepared: learning to write an essay, being tenacious, by participating in a contest across the planet to earn a place in the Drucker Forum in Vienna. The theme of the Drucker Challenge 2015 needed yet another skill: Being able to looking inside oneself to get the storyline with convincing arguments and to grasp that special Drucker spirit. Our jury panel for the 1st round of judging is now starting. Those who are shortlisted to be the best 15 will be announced by early August, with a final ranking 1 -10 by August 31. We warmly thank those who have submitted an essay for the Drucker Challenge. Our thanks also go to our sponsor Tata Consultancy Services, our premium partner The Frances Hesselbein Leadership Institute, and our global media partner Harvard Business Review.
