Decades ago, Peter Drucker was invited to address the senior management team at General Motors, he asked them a simple, but penetrating question: “Why should I buy a GM car?”
Many senior executives attempted to answer that simple question but, nobody was able to give a convincing answer! The senior managers at General Motors had unlearnt the art of winning customers by not being able to answer the simple question - “Why should I buy a GM car?” But they kept introducing more and more new models which less and less customers bought. And that was the prelude to GM’s decline and bankruptcy.
That question still resonates for every business including Indian Pharma. I wonder how many field sales people - Medical Reps and their managers can answer the question - Why Should the Doctor Rx Your Product? Having a clear answer to that question is the key to winning customers - be they doctors, chemists, distributors or hospitals.
As companies grow larger, hierarchies are created and sales processes like CRM/SFA evolve and become embedded. In the absence of a dynamic top leadership, hierarchy and processes become rigid and difficult to change even though rapidly changing market dynamics demand that they do. Bureaucracy slows down customer-centric decision making and inaction becomes part of the organisation's culture. The emphasis shifts from developing employees and winning customers to launching products and hitting numbers.
Peter Drucker rarely blamed individuals; he saw root causes in the design of organizations—in their structures, processes, norms, and routines. He would ask leaders a few provocative questions: “What is your mission? What should you stop doing? Where has the drive for short-term efficiencies undermined long-term effectiveness? What should be your objectives and guiding principles?”

IMÁGENES SUBLIMINALES EN LAS PUBLICACIONES DE LOS TESTIGOS DE JEHOVÁClaude LaCombe
Recuerdo perfectamente la primera vez que oí hablar de las imágenes subliminales de los Testigos de Jehová. Fue en los primeros años del foro de religión “Yahoo respuestas” (que, por cierto, desapareció definitivamente el 30 de junio de 2021). El tema del debate era el “arte religioso”. Todos compartíamos nuestros puntos de vista sobre cuadros como “La Mona Lisa” o el arte apocalíptico de los adventistas, cuando repentinamente uno de los participantes dijo que en las publicaciones de los Testigos de Jehová se ocultaban imágenes subliminales demoniacas.
Lo que pasó después se halla plasmado en la presente obra.
Durante el período citado se sucedieron tres presidencias radicales a cargo de Hipólito Yrigoyen (1916-1922),
Marcelo T. de Alvear (1922-1928) y la segunda presidencia de Yrigoyen, a partir de 1928 la cual fue
interrumpida por el golpe de estado de 1930. Entre 1916 y 1922, el primer gobierno radical enfrentó el
desafío que significaba gobernar respetando las reglas del juego democrático e impulsando, al mismo
tiempo, las medidas que aseguraran la concreción de los intereses de los diferentes grupos sociales que
habían apoyado al radicalismo.
