Peter Drucker once was quoted as saying, "Everybody
has accepted by now that change is unavoidable. But that still
implies that change is like death and taxes it should be
postponed as long as possible and no change would be vastly
preferable. But in a period of upheaval, such as the one we are
living in, change is the norm. "
His recent book is published under the heading of Time

aspects of the subjects.
