For those of you who follow the world of management/organization
science, you are well aware of the impact of Peter Drucker. His passing
on Friday at the age of 95 has brought forth a flurry of tributes and
reflections on his life and influence on all kinds of organizations.
His work has extended far beyond the "for profit" world, as a foundation
for non-profit managment called the "Leader to Leader Institute"
origninally was called the Peter Drucker Foundation:

Subject: Special collection on Peter Drucker's legacy
Special collection: Peter Drucker and the "knowledge manager"
The influential management theorist Peter F. Drucker died on November
11th. He leaves behind a remarkable body of work, developed over more
than 50 years, that not only addressed the major themes in modern
thinking on management from marketing to organization but also often
anticipated them by decades. The great and growing collection of outside
work that Drucker's thinking has generated testifies to the seminal
place of his ideas on the role of knowledge in companies. These articles
from the McKinsey Quarterly archive look at how companies can maximize
the benefits from their in-house knowledge.
