ESSAY CONTEST 2011

The second edition of the “Global Peter Drucker Challenge”, an international essay contest for students, young managers and young entrepreneurs, had the overarching theme “Management, What is it Good For?” The essays touched on a diverse range of topics, but were universal in their plea for "Management with a Human Face".

The winners were chosen by an international jury composed of business strategist, consultant and co-author of “Predictable Magic” Deepa Prahalad; John Peters, director of strategy and publishing at GSE Research Ltd. and editor of the journal “Management Decision”; and management consultant Elizabeth Haas Edersheim, author of “The Definitive Drucker”.
