Lesson 3: Take a sabbatical to develop your skills

Peter Drucker believed in leadership as a good for the world, not just business. He thought leaders and managers are extremely well-positioned to help governments and non-profit organizations as well.

For example, in 1967 the Californian government suffered a public debt crisis and was forced to do several tax hikes. The situation only turned for the better when some 200 managers took an executive sabbatical and came in to kill a few inefficient, million dollar projects, allowing the government to lower taxes again and even offer tax refunds.
