This is Peter Drucker’s 1994 HBR article about the “theory of the business” that has become a persistent theme in so many of the work that Pubic Purpose does in many different organisational settings. Drucker’s insights about the need for organisations, systems and institutions to clarify and align their assumptions about mission, context and capabilities are even more apt in a very different and rapidly changing world. Simple advice, hard to do well.
