Team objectives:

Peter, a serial entrepreneur in his own right, believed that applying the teachings of Peter F. Drucker is key to achieving success in management and organisation development. He promoted these teachings both in the private sector and within the non-profit organisations he was closely associated with. Another of his contributions to modern day thinking is the theme that the natural world has much to offer human endeavors by the lessons that can be learned through observing the natural world in action. Bio-mimicry is already an established field of scientific study based on the workings of the natural world.

From his home on the North Wales border Peter established an international network through which he disseminated his ideas and contributed to current thinking on leadership and organisations. He was supported by a small staff including his wife Heather with whom he travelled extensively throughout the world looking at how nature conducts its business and writing about what can be learned from it. He produced a book on the subject of ‘How Nature Managed First’ which he believed could be suitable material for a t.v. documentary.

Peter was frequently invited to contribute to various publications drawing on his extensive knowledge of the works of Peter F. Drucker . His achievements as a scholar of Drucker’s works have been recognised by the European Drucker Society through their awarding him an honorary membership along with only two other people: the late Charles Handy and the late Joseph Maciariello.
