The Drucker Institute at Claremont Graduate University

The Drucker Institute at Claremont Graduate University is home to nearly a century of foundational research from Peter F. Drucker, widely recognized as the father of modern management, as well as contributions from other leading management thinkers such as Tom Peters and Charles Handy. Drucker’s extensive work engages deeply with essential themes beyond traditional management, including community, society, governance, and the broader functioning of society.

Our dedicated team of experts actively explores new frontiers in management theory and practice, committed to translating these insights into tangible impacts for organizations and leaders across corporate, governmental, nonprofit, and social sectors worldwide. Through pioneering research, influential publications, dynamic leadership academies, rigorous rankings, innovative labs, and thought-leadership initiatives, the Institute promotes effective management and responsible leadership as foundational elements for achieving a thriving, resilient, and functioning society.
