ALFRED P. SLOAN and GENERAL MOTORS by Peter F. Drucker

“When I started in 1944 on my first big consulting assignment, a study of the management structure and . . . policies of the General Motors Corporation[,] Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., who was then chairman and chief executive officer . . . , called me to his office . . . and said: ‘I shall not tell you what to study, what to write, or what conclusions to come to. This is your task. My only instruction to you is to put down what you think is right. . . . Don’t . . . concern yourself with the compromises that might be needed to make your recommendations acceptable.’ ”
