A business guru is a manager that can be defined as 'a person with influential ideas or theories about business'. The earliest use of the term business guru can be tracked back to the 1960s being used in Business Week.[2] There are no existing qualifications that make someone a business guru. Anyone can become a business guru by making impact in a particular industry. It's also possible to claim to be a business guru at any time. It's not a title. The lists of people who have been accepted as business gurus have constantly changed over time.[3] However, there are some people who have been accepted by a great majority as a business guru and also some organizations which have created their own lists of gurus. One English[4] writer has described management gurus as "overwhelmingly a US phenomenon."[5]
There is no definitive list of business gurus, but some writers have proposed "personal" lists.[6] These lists are mostly created by organizations such as business magazines or management writers.[6] There have been many business guru lists created through history.
In 2001, Harvard Business Review asked the gurus to name their favorite gurus. The people named were Peter Drucker, James March and Herbert Simon.[6]
Another list includes Peter Drucker, Michael Porter, and Tom Peters as the three leading gurus of our time.[5] There are also many gurus who have emerged and disappeared through history. For example, the Japanese were known for making improvements to the business world and bringing out gurus in the 1980s, which included Kenichi Ohmae and Akio Morita. Then European gurus emerged, which included Yves Doz, Geert Hofstede, Manfred Kets De Vries, and Charles Handy.[3]https://www.linkedin.com/in/managementguru/. I must say few real management mentors had shaped the world and planet earth. Marshal Goldsmith, Jack Canfield, Charles SAVAGE, Shailesh Thaker, Brenda Bence, Brian Tracy, Sally Helgesen.
Criticisms of "guru" status
One management expert, Gary Hamel, says there have been "few genuine breakthroughs" since the work of Taylor and Max Weber.[7] In his book, Hamel says that management is "stuck in a time warp."[8] Similarly, even one of the authors of a book about management gurus warns that management theory is "not served well by fads," citing Enron as a "management fad for its supposed culture of innovation."[5]
