Moshidora (2011 film)

Moshidora (2011 Film)

Peter Ferdinand Drucker (1909-2005) wrote a book that reveals the hidden truth behind the word "management" and how respectful company leaders read the book Peter Drucker wrote, gained potential in management.

Moshi Koko Yakyu no Joshi Manager ga Drucker no 'Management' o Yondara or MoshiDora for short, which translates to What if a Japanese Female Baseball Manager Read Peter Drucker's 'Management, is last year's best-seller novel highlights about a young teenage high school student named Minami Kawashima who takes place as the acting manager for the school's baseball team while her friend was sick. She's having a hard time managing a baseball team and she finds some help at the bookstore where she bought the "Management" book by mistake. It's a minor mistake for Minami because she was confused between the words "Manager" and "Management" at the same time. But then, something good happened to her after she bought the wrong book. The words and quotes of Peter Drucker's Management motivated Minami Kawashima and led the baseball team she manages to victory.

This best-seller novel spawned an anime version aired on NHK for 10 straight episodes and now, the movie version is now here and it stars AKB48's Atsuko Maeda as Minami Kawashima. Come to think of it, the best-seller novel that spawned both the anime and the live-action movie was an aggressive approach to bring Drucker's message to the viewers and inspire them the true meaning of leadership and one day, you will know what is the truth behind management and how you use it is up to you.

Atsuko Maeda's overall audience impact is somewhat a home run but the story stays true to the novel itself but with some minor changes happened. You can't tell what is the difference between the story from the MoshiDora novel, the MoshiDora anime previously aired on NHK since Spring 2011, and now Summer 2011's MoshiDora movie. Good to know that there are lessons learned and Peter Drucker Management quotes you may need to remember in order to be a successful leader in the future. Feel free to find out how does Drucker Management help you and what you can say about the inspirational MoshiDora.
