Drucker is more famous, but I suspect Chandler's ideas will prove to be more enduring. Drucker's relevance drops with time, Chandler's grows

Visible Hand is the classic. I haven't gotten far myself I admit. That's why I want a sabbatical to study :)

haha gotcha :) I probably shouldn't buy any more books actually as my piles just keep growing. Too much startup to read much...

Just his phrase "structure follows strategy" has been a more fertile thought for me than all of Drucker (who I've read more)

Drucker cut to the chase of what's important/what to do without spending too much time on why things are the way they are
