David's Time With Peter F. Drucker 2020.5.5 How to act on abandonment is thus the second question. It is as important as the first one. It is actually more controversial and more difficult. The answer should therefore always be tested on a small scale or piloted. In a period of rapid change the “How?” is likely to become obsolete faster than the “What?” The change leader must therefore also ask of every product, service, market or process: “If we were to go into this now, knowing what we now know, would we go into it the way we are doing it now?” And this question needs to be asked of the successful product, service, market and process as regularly——and as seriously——as of the unsuccessful product, service, market or process. ——《Management Challenges for the 21st Century · Chapter3》(Peter F.Drucker,1999)
