organizations or very small, with respect to the
boss/decision-making/crisis issues."

Sorry I didn't answer the original question regarding the size of the
organizations Drucker is talking about. Drucker starts out this section of
the book by remarking that the study of management started with the
"sudden emergence of large organizations" (p. 9). Also, his focus in the
book is primarily on large institutions.
