Drucker “It is that simple, guys. Please make sure you pick one that speaks to you. We will have more than one assignment with the quote that you use.” He told us. “That’s it. You may have the rest of your time to talk amongst yourselves or use the time to look up quotes on those cell phones I know you have in your backpacks. I am fine with either. “ He said with his back to us as he went to his desk in the back corner but across the room from me and took a seat. That was simple enough.
