The quotations from Peter Drucker and Henry Mintzberg define the management function: Drucker focuses on people, Mintzberg on on how managers provide opportunities. As managers, we take on great responsibilities as we try to meet organizational requirements as well as providing challenging work opportunities. This issue of EMR begins the Technology Managers Notebook followed by Reflections from the Past featuring Peter F. Drucker. Drucker asks the question: "Is management a bag of techniques and tricks?" We learn from experience that management is a body of knowledge that supports leaders and managers and much more than a bag of tools, techniques and tricks.
