Frederick W. Taylor(1856-1915) father of Scientific
ManagementFrederick W. Taylor rested hisphilosophy on four basic principles:
The development of a true science of
management, so that the best method forperforming each task could be determined.
The scientific selection of workers, so thateach worker would be given responsibilityfor the task for which he or she was best
suited. The scientific education and developmentof the worker.
Intimate, friendly cooperation betweenmanagement and labour. 22

Limitations of ScientificManagement Theory
Workers & unions began to oppose thisapproach because they feared that workingharder or faster would exhaust whatever
work was available causing layoffs.His critics objected to the “speed up”conditions that placed undue pressures onemployees to perform at faster & faster
levels. The emphasis on productivity and byextension profitability led some managers toexploit both workers and customers.

Fayol’s 14 Principles of Management
1. Division of Labour : The most people
specialize, the more efficiently they canperform their work, e.g., modern assemblyline.
2. Authority : Besides formal authority,
managers musty have personal authorityto compel obedience.
3. Discipline: Members in an org. need torespect the rules & agreements that
govern the org.
4. Unity of Command : Each employee mustreceive instructions from only one person.
5. Unity of Direction: Operations within theor . havin the same ob ective should be66

6. Subordination of individual interest to thecommon good.
7. Remuneration: Compensation for wormdone should be fair to both employees andemployers.
8. Centralization: decreasing the role of
subordinates in decision making iscentralization; increasing their role isdecentralization. He believed that managersshould retain final responsibility but at thesame time give the subordinates enough
authority to do their jobs properly. Theproblem is to find the proper degree of centralization in each case.
9. Hierarchy: The line of authority in an org.
runs in order of rank from top management77

10. Order: Materials & people should be in the
right place at the right time.
12. Equity: managers should be both friendlyand fair to their subordinates.
13.
Stability of Staff : A high employee
turnover rate undermines the efficientfunctioning of an org.
14. Initiative: Subordinates should be given thefreedom to conceive and carry out theirplans, even though some mistakes mayresult.
15. Esprit de Corps: Promoting team spirit willgive the org. a sense of unity.

Principles of Human Relations TheoryHuman relations theory is characterized by a shift in emphasis from
TASK to WORKER
Go beyond physical contributions to include creative, cognitive, andemotional aspects of workers
Based on a more dyadic (two-way) conceptualization of communication.

effectiveness is contingent on the social well-being of workersWorkers communicate opinions, complaints, suggestions, and feelingsto increase satisfaction and production

ax e er a er o eory oBureaucracyWeber defined bureaucracies as "goal-oriented organizations designed according
to rational principles in order to efficiently attain the stated goals"
Weber saw the formation and execution of bureaucracies as necessary tocomplex societies
the ideal bureaucracy has these characteristics:
– official business is conducted on a continuous basis
– business is conducted in accordance with some rules
– every official's responsibility and authority are part of a hierarchy of
authority – officials do not own the resources necessary for them to perform their
assigned functions, but they are accountable for the use of thoseresources
– offices cannot be appropriated by their incumbents in the sense of property that can be inherited or sold on the basis of written documents
