INSTITUTE LAUNCHES NEW MONTHLY RADIO SHOW
The Drucker Institute at Claremont Graduate University announced that it will launch “Drucker on the Dial,” a radio show on management and leadership.
The first installment of the one-hour interview program will be posted on Friday, May 13, 2011. A new edition of “Drucker on the Dial” will then be available on the second Friday of every month.
“Drucker on the Dial” will feature a wide range of well-known guests—executives, authors, academics and others—discussing topics that spring from the headlines. At the same time, the show will be informed by the teachings of Peter Drucker, hailed by BusinessWeek as “the man who invented management.”
“The tagline for ‘Drucker on the Dial’ is ‘where timely issues meet timeless principles,’ and that’s exactly the lens we plan to use,” said Phalana Tiller, communications manager at the Drucker Institute and the show’s host. “Our aim is to attract an audience that goes well beyond those steeped in business. Rather, we’re hoping to engage a general listenership that implicitly understands the role of effective management and responsible leadership in a healthy society.”
On the first show, Tiller talks with Roger Martin, dean of the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto, on a variety of subjects, including his new book, Fixing the Game: Bubbles, Crashes, and What Capitalism Can Learn from the NFL. And she chats with James Quigley, global CEO of professional services giant Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, about his book As One: Individual Action, Collective Power.
