The Drucker Institute: Drucker Society Global Network Program Manager
Join a startup powered by one of the strongest brands and greatest
minds in management -- Peter Drucker -- and take the lead on strategy
and marketing for a burgeoning global network of volunteers already in
nine countries and more than 1,500 people strong.
Primary Purpose/General Description
The Drucker Institute is a Claremont Graduate University-wide resource
that stimulates effective management and ethical leadership across all
sectors of society by advancing the ideas and ideals of Peter F.
Drucker.
In a little more than a year, the Institute has achieved worldwide
reach through the work of its Drucker Society Global Network. Drucker
Societies are independent volunteer-driven associations that take many
forms, each according to the needs and interests of its membership.
Their activities include book clubs in which CEOs discuss Drucker’s
teachings and how to apply them to their companies and communities;
Drucker-based training programs for nonprofit organizations; and
workshops on Drucker and his ideas for high school students.
Description Of Duties And Responsibilities
1. Provide program support materials to Drucker Societies. The program
manager will work with other Institute staff to write new materials,
and re-purpose existing Institute resources, for individual Drucker
Society use based on specific programming needs.
2. Monitor the impact of all Drucker Society programs. The global
corporate social responsibility office of the professional services
giant Deloitte has made available a number of its employees in
countries where Drucker Societies operate to serve as the Institute’s
“boots on the ground” for monitoring and supporting the Societies’ work
on a day-to-day basis. But the Deloitte employees themselves will
require regular contact with the Institute, through the program
manager, to share what they are learning and receive guidance on
theDrucker Societies’ future plans and objectives.
3. Seed new Drucker Societies. New applications from prospective
Drucker Societies require detailed follow-up and due diligence to
determine their suitability. The program manager will not only respond
to these applications, s/he will also identify and cultivate applicants
from organizations, individuals, and geographic areas targeted by the
Institute.
4. Develop and maintain an exclusive online forum for Drucker Society
members to help them document their work, share best practices, and
exchange ideas.
5. Oversee the annual Drucker Society gathering in Claremont, California.
6. Periodically visit each Drucker Society in its home country at least
once per year to preserve and enhance the Institute-Society
relationship, and give the Institute a first-hand look at each
Society’s operations and impact.
7. Administer Drucker Society legal agreements.
8. Perform other duties as required.
Salary Range: $50,000-$60,000
Additional Qualifications
1. Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
2. Strong organizational skills.
3. Take direction well, but also be a self-starter.
4. Some knowledge of social entrepreneurship, grassroots organizing, or volunteer-driven organizations.
5. Functions well in a fast-paced, start-up environment.
6. Be capable of traveling alone to a wide range of countries.
7. Be proficient with email, word processing, spreadsheets, and internet and library research.
