Music and Management: Drucker's Musical World

This a bi-lingual book written by Mac Leung. Music And Management.

Quoted from FOREWORD of JOSEPH A. MACIARELLO :
"Mac Leung is a most unusual person. He is a remarkable teacher who communicates with creativity as you will see in this book.

I have been similarly exhilarated reading this book by Mac Leung. He makes music of Drucker’s teachings on thirty-five topics organized into seven major categories. These readings are drawn from a cross-section of Drucker’s work. That in itself is an accomplishment since Drucker wrote approximately 39 books and used numerous illustrations from music to explain management principles and practices.

The beauty of Mac’s approach and it is art, is that he teaches important Drucker ideas in a completely new way and leaves the reader to reflect on each idea. He makes learning Drucker on Management enjoyable. I found the book hard to put down and read it cover-to-cover in one sitting. Mac turns what could be a chore into pure entertainment and joy! That is quite an accomplishment.

In this day when instruction has to keep up and compete with modern technology, Mac has found still another medium to teach Drucker’s work that is perfectly in harmonization with the popular culture. The teachings in the book illustrate both Drucker’s genius as a management thinker and writer and Mac’s genius of putting it to music."

Quoted from FOREWORD of DARWIN CHEN:
"This short book summarizes Drucker’s use of orchestras as an example to businessmen on how to manage a complex organization. It is equally useful from the perspective of an orchestral manager who can learn from the experience of business in achieving artistic as well as community objectives.

For me, as a practitioner in arts administration over several decades, the most stimulating element of this book is the author’s “Reflections” that come at the end of each Drucker quote. They open up new avenues of thought which would certainly help any arts manager to do a better job of management."
