If it isn't Broken, Break it!
Peter Drucker stated that obsolescence must be planned into products and processes in order to stay ahead of the competition. A company or product that is stagnant only creates fertile opportunity for competition. In other words, your competition will always replicate the success you have achieved in the past. This simplified premise makes innovation the competitive advantage that most successful companies lack over sustained periods of prosperity.

7.0 Entrepreneurship and Small Business Success: Entrepreneurship and Small Business Enterprise Growth in Uganda
Common day definition of entrepreneurs tend to equate it with those who start small business (Drucker, 1993). This is a fallacy. Entrepreneurship is a dynamic process of creating wealth whether in small organisations or large organisations. Entrepreneurship is a continuous search for change, responding to it and exploiting it as an opportunity (Drucker, 1993). Most successful organisations are successful because of the entrepreneurial behaviour of their leaders and the entrepreneurial culture prevalent in the organisation. The key entrepreneurial behaviours include the following :

"Most Americans do not know what their strengths are. When you ask them, they look at you with a blank stare, or they respond in terms of subject knowledge, which is the wrong answer." --Peter Drucker Many people never fully utilize their natural gifts because they don't find the proper way to express them in the world, or perhaps they don't even recognize the talents they have.

Your combined unique talents and capabilities create an experience for others that they will not be able to find anywhere else.

Counselling Employees To Build on Strengths
A current management fad is that we only truly improve by building on our strengths. Peter Drucker started this trend back in the fifties, but it has become increasingly popular in the last decade or so, especially with the writings of Marcus Buckingham, et al. Building on strengths is indeed the best way to improve performance and the key to success, whether in business or in life. This article provides some helpful pointers on counselling employees and subordinates to magnify their strengths and minimize their weaknesses.

Teaching Large Companies To Think Like The Little Guys
The fact that innovation and entrepreneurship run rampant in smaller companies, but is often suppressed in larger companies is nothing new.

Leaders Make the Difference
All organizations have access to more-or-less the same resources. They draw from the same pool of people in their markets or geographic areas. And they can all learn about the latest tools and techniques. Yet not all organizations perform equally. In fact, there is a huge gap between high-and low-performing organizations. What accounts for this? Quite simply, it's people. As the venerable Peter Drucker points out, "Of all the decisions a manager makes, none are as important as the decisions about people because they determine the performance capacity of the organization."
