Fully Funded: Peter Drucker Challenge 2017


Drucker Challenge is an essay contest for students and professionals between 18 and 35 organized by the Peter Drucker Society Europe.
The Contest of the Challenge 
Prosperity is not just a financial notion — inclusive prosperity encompasses the opportunity for lives in dignity, with purpose and roles to contribute to common endeavors in the communities one is part of. It is definitely more than material well-being. A holistic view of prosperity includes all — the material and economic aspects as well the social, emotional, intellectual and spiritual side.
The biggest natural resource on the planet is human potential — human energy, engagement and creativity. Only a fraction of this potential is brought to bear today. However, if better leveraged, this latent potential would be the key driver for economic and human growth.
Key Questions: 
  • What holds people back in today’s organizations and institutions to realize their potential? What are the obstacles that you see in your environment?
  • What is the role of management to free up human potential? Give examples of management actions that have made a difference in your life.
  • Can digital technology (in particular automation and Al) spawn prosperity as opposed to eliminate jobs? Give concrete examples
  • What is your perspective on how technology can enable people to co-create solutions that are good for their communities, the economy and the world?
