引用德國萊比錫管理學院（HHL Leipzig）教授梅因哈特（Timo Meynhardt）話來說，約瑟夫˙馬齊里洛是彼得˙杜拉克的「合法繼承人」。然而，約瑟夫˙馬齊里洛本身也是一位學者，有他個人的興趣、熱情、貢獻和觀點。本書（他的最後遺作）表達了他作為思想家、作家，尤其是影響了眾多世人的個人特質。《原則：指引人類邁向更崇高的目標》這本書，闡明了約瑟夫對於管理學成為一門博雅技藝的理解和個人的解讀。正如他在〈內容提要〉中所言，這本書旨在提供有關卓越領導力的一些短文。雖然杜拉克在他的寫作中很少使用「領導力」（leadership）這個詞，但約瑟夫在這部著作中欣然接受了這個詞，聲稱領導力是管理學成為一門博雅技藝的基礎。本書證明了約瑟夫多年來處理杜拉克的想法、理念、理論和方法，然後將之應用於他自己的想法、概念、理論和方法。這本書固然是杜拉克資料的綜合體，卻也是約瑟夫．馬齊里洛多年的研究、思維和獨特處理方法的產物。作者利用四年時間彙整出七篇傳記類的短文。這些短文經由長時間孕育而成，在本書中交織成一個卓越領導力的故事。每一篇短文都有一個獨特、鮮明的主題，串聯到這個卓越領導力的故事。這七篇短文固然皆以卓越領導力為主題，但各有不同的背景。林肯（Abraham Lincoln）是典範，是美國培育出來的卓越領導力中最重要的表率；另外六篇短文接棒林肯的故事，各自闡述優質領導力的其他面向。第二篇短文聚焦於打破美國職棒大聯盟的膚色藩籬。布魯克林道奇隊的總經理芮基（Branch Ricky），在一九四六年簽下羅賓森（Jackie Roosevelt Robinson）。羅賓森是傑出的黑人運動員，勇於面對種族歧視的羞辱，忍氣吞聲、絕不還擊。他先在道奇隊位於蒙特婁的小聯盟球隊出賽，後來在一九四六年球季尾聲升上大聯盟。若要創造出更包容、更有效能的社會，我們必須師法羅賓森和芮基的決定。接下來的三篇短文有些類似的特色，雖不像前兩者那麼廣為人知，但各有其強勁有力之處。這三篇分別是：●〈可攜式維生系統〉（PLSS）：一九六九年七月二十九日首次登陸月球的太空人，使用的登月小艇環境控制系統（ECS）。●〈船上男孩〉（The Boys in The Boat）：這篇短文依據布朗（Daniel James Brown）的小說寫就，描述華盛頓大學划船隊勇奪一九三六年柏林奧運金牌的經過。●〈冰上奇蹟〉（Miracle
