Summary

This is the revised edition, Volume 1, of Peter Drucker's classic Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, Practices (first published in 1973). Under Drucker's own guidance, Joseph A. Maciariello integrated Drucker's new writing on management from 1974 to 2005 into the original text, replacing outdated material, deleting obsolete content, and updating concrete examples wherever possible, bringing this monumental work—more than thirty years after its initial publication—back in touch with the management realities of its time. Volume 1 begins with "What is management, and who is a manager," defining the nature, dimensions, and responsibilities of management. It argues that management is an organ of the institution, exists for the sake of performance, and must simultaneously fulfill three tasks: achieving the institution's specific mission and results, making work productive and workers achieving, and managing social impacts and social responsibilities. It then proceeds through five parts: first, the new realities of management, discussing the knowledge society, demographic shifts, the future of the corporation, and new management paradigms; second, the performance of business, covering the theory of the business, the purpose and objectives of business, creating the future, and strategic planning; third, the performance of service institutions, involving the management of government, schools, and nonprofit organizations; fourth, productive work and achieving workers, distinguishing the management of manual work from knowledge work; and fifth, social impacts, social responsibilities, and the new pluralism. The author emphasizes that management is both a discipline and a humanity, and that managers must translate these tasks into executable practice.

Editor's review

很多人读德鲁克,是从《卓有成效的管理者》那本薄书入门,真正要建立完整的管理框架,则需要回到《管理:使命、责任、实务》这部集大成之作。本册是它的原书修订版上卷,由德鲁克长期合作者马恰列洛在德鲁克本人参与下整理修订,既保留了原著的整体骨架,又吸收了德鲁克晚年关于知识社会、人口结构与组织形态的新思考,读来并不过时。 它的价值在于“把管理讲全”。从管理者的定义、管理的三个维度,到事业理论、目标体系、战略规划,再到服务机构、知识工作者与社会责任,德鲁克始终把管理放在社会与文化的背景中讨论,而不是只教工具和技巧。书中反复强调:管理者的第一责任是机构的绩效,但同时必须让工作有效率、让员工有成就、让组织对社会影响负责。这种把效率和人文放在一起的视角,正是今天许多管理书缺少的。 需要提醒的是,这是一部体系性著作,不是速成手册。一次读一章,边读边对照自己所在的组织,收获会大得多。

Who it's for

A good fit for

Reading tips

  1. 先读第1—3章建立“管理是什么”的框架,再按部分顺序推进,不必从中间跳读。
  2. 每次只读一章,读完用自己的话写下该章的核心命题,并对应一个本单位的真实问题。
  3. 第8—11章讲企业绩效与战略,建议与本人所在机构的使命、目标文本对照阅读。
  4. 可与下册及《德鲁克经典管理案例解析》配套使用,把原理落到案例与行动上。

FAQ

这本《管理(上册)》和《管理:使命、责任、实践》是什么关系?
它是德鲁克1973年《管理:使命、责任、实务》的原书修订版。马恰列洛在德鲁克本人参与下把1974—2005年的新论述融入原著,删去部分过时内容,机械工业出版社按上下册出版,本册为上卷。
上册主要讲哪些内容?
上册共21章,先界定管理与管理者的定义、管理的维度,随后分五部分讨论:管理的新现实、企业的绩效、服务机构的绩效、高效率的工作与有成就的员工、社会影响与社会责任。
没有管理学基础能读懂吗?
可以读,但需要耐心。德鲁克的论述偏思想性、案例偏历史背景,建议先读第1—3章打底,再配合导读或读书会,一次一章地推进。
这本书的评分和页数是多少?
该版本页数有238页之说(不同印次与著录可能不一致),本次未能核实到可靠的豆瓣评分,故评分暂缺,建议以购买页面或图书馆书目信息为准。
上下册必须一起读吗?
上册已完整呈现管理的基本框架与主要任务,可以独立阅读;下册继续展开管理者与组织结构等实务内容,若想形成完整体系,建议两册连贯读完。

About the author

Peter Ferdinand Drucker Author · Austrian-American · 1909–2005

Peter Drucker (1909–2005) was born in Vienna, Austria, and moved to the United States in 1937. A management consultant, educator, and writer, he is widely regarded as the father of modern management. Through his writing and consulting, he helped establish management as a teachable practice and introduced influential ideas such as management by objectives and the knowledge worker. His major works include The Practice of Management, The Effective Executive, Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, Practices, Adventures of a Bystander, and The Age of Discontinuity. His books combine depth of thought with practical concern and span management, social science, and finance. In 2002 he received the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Joseph A. Maciariello is an author associated with classic works in management studies, but public information about him is very limited: his nationality, dates of birth and death, and educational background are not clearly documented. What can be confirmed is that two Chinese-language management works appear under his name: Management (Management Classics Series, Revised Original Edition, Volume Two) and The Practice of the Effective Manager (Management Classics Series). Judging from the titles and the series positioning, these works are classic readings on organizational management and managerial practice, emphasizing the exposition of management principles and their connection with the actual work of managers. They are intended mainly for business managers, management students, and general readers interested in management classics. Because detailed biographical and academic information is lacking, a deeper assessment of his writing style and personal contributions is difficult; nevertheless, the inclusion of his works in a management classics series suggests some reference value in the organization and dissemination of management knowledge.
