Sometimes what separates classics from junk in a topic area is how honest and direct the author is conveying key messages no matter how unpleasant. Drucker, being the definite guru of management-related books, is brutally honest in this book about being an effective executive, or just an executive: to paraphrase, an executive should never do what they want; they should do they are told to, and should not let their own wish, preference, or whatever get into the way. People pay you to do something for a reason. If it's all pleasant jobs then people could have done it themselves, right? Life would not be easier with this fact in mind, but at least you will know what to do?
