Leadership That Gets Results (Harvard Business Review Classics)
A leader's singular job is to get results. But even with all the leadership training programs and expert advice available, effective leadership still eludes many people and organisations.

The Theory of the Business (Harvard Business Review Classics)
Peter F. Drucker argues that what underlies the current malaise of so many large and successful organisations worldwide is that their theory of the business no longer works.
