Business Finance Homework Help

Peter Drucker is considered the leading management thinker of the last century. He wrote 40 books on management, including several when he was in his 90s. He coined or developed many fundamental management concepts (or their precursor ideas) that we take for granted today—the knowledge worker, management by objectives, outsourcing, and many others. The management guru Peter Drucker framed his consulting advice around five critical questions. With the answers to these five questions, you could run and grow your business. In this paper, you will refer to Drucker’s 5 questions to analyze current or future/potential business opportunities.

Prepare and submit 3-4 page paper that briefly describes Drucker’s five questions, defines and applies each of the five questions to a real organizational situation, and reflects on insights gained. A well-constructed paper will reference 3 or more scholarly sources including at least 1 journal article such as those assigned and retrieved from Brandman’s virtual library, and adhere to APA standards.
