“Drucker approached his life and his life's work in a manner quite unlike anything I'd witnessed before I was his student in the 1980s and his coworker in the 1990s. This book is an important piece of work, starting with our commitment to higher principles, extending into effective guardianship of scarce resources, and ultimately manifesting in the form of empowering service to others.”

“I've been fascinated with the human side of Peter Drucker's work for over thirty years. In my communications with him, he validated that leadership development, especially of knowledge workers, begins with personal development. Bruce captures Peter's core belief that being authentic is the highest form of emotional intelligence.”
—Dr. Paul Wieand, Chairman and founder, The Center for Advanced Emotional Intelligence
“As ‘the self-help book that Drucker never wrote,’ Living in More Than One World fills an important gap in the personal development literature, impressively showing how we do not change the world, or even our own organization, until we have first worked on ourselves. A must-read for all who demand more of their personal and professional lives.”
—Tom Butler-Bowdon, author of 50 Self-Help Classics, 50 Success Classics, 50 Psychology Classics, and 50 Prosperity Classics
