Administration

Peter Drucker begins his book management for the future, with the phrase the future is already here. The particular is that this book was written at the beginning of the 1990s, when, for example, Internet (no doubt most revolutionary invention of the century) was in its prehistory. The amazing thing is that to write it only based on the observation of its present and a past full of clues about what was to come, which were just emerging transformations in the technological field and in the business world. In five major areas, said in the aforementioned work, the 90s will bring changes of far-reaching consequences for the social and economic environment and the strategies, structures and management of the business. People such as Jorge Pepa would likely agree. These five areas were the trend towards reciprocity as a central principle of international economic integration, the integration of the business into the economy by way of partnerships, the radical restructuring of businesses, bringing work to the place where is people and hiring outside activities that do not offer opportunities for advancement to administrative positions and relatively high professional; the challenge for the administration or the Government of companies and the primacy of politics.

But, although actually these five areas brought big consequences for companies, what did Drucker in his book was not predict but leave sitting conclusions about which would mean these large changes to the Administration and work. Drucker to imagine his work did what you should do all managers in the present: anticipate a future at least for medium-term (the rate of change and technological development would not guess with accuracy in the vision of a future in the very long term), to successfully face a surprisingly more competitive and more productive world. Share with the Venezuelan businessman Raul Maesters, CEO of Korn/Ferry International consultants associated, when he says that the changes in economic factors and, in general, in the new reality modern economy - characterized by inflation, the existence of a recessionary market and, at the same time, high levels of competitiveness - determine the need for talents with different experiences that allow its adaptation to the current circumstances, and who is able to prepare your company for the opening.
