No one can ignore the significant impact of the late Drucker on contemporary organizations, on mental thoughts, or even on working practices. He was named the ‘Father of Modern Management,’ not only because of his writing on people, performance, management, but also because he inspired many management practitioners to think critically and follow his thoughts.

From HR perspectives, Drucker taught us about the fine art of the current HR strategies and practices. He drew our attention to various concepts in handling our human capital. His clear vision manifested a new HR picture of the future. More-over, he provided noteworthy suggestions to elevate the practices of Human Resources Management.

We are now witnessing a serious focus on HR practitioners and senior HR executives’ roles in their organization. Today’s HR business world international awards are given to those contributing to the uplifting of HR practices and
programs within their institutions. However, the lack of oversight from HR practitioners on Drucker contributions in the field of human capital and the practices is a real depression.

The following are few lessons that Drucker taught us.
