Approaches to
Management
thoughts
Schools of
management thought

14. Approaches to management thoughts
I. Traditional or productivity approach: The approach of Fayol, Taylor and
others. The techniques of management shall have to be applied in every area
— production, purchase, marketing, finance and personnel.
II. Humanistic Approach: The approach of Follett, McGregor, and others
emphasizing the importance of the human element. There is no end of
improving man’s efficiency through experience and training.
III. Behavioral Approach: The approach of behavioral scientists. Management is
concerned with human behavior which is influenced by environment.
B = f (P.E.) where B = Behavior, f = function, P = Person and E =
Environment.
IV. Rationalistic Model or Mathematical Approach: The approach of Barnard
and others. Decision must be rational, i.e. logical and reasonable. Problems
are converted into mathematical equations or models with the use of
mathematical and statistical sciences.

15. V. System Approach: Management is a part of our social system. A
business organization is described as an ‘energic’ input-output
system. Management is a social system as it is concerned with the
group behavior of man. Protagonist of this approach is Chaster
Barnard.
VI. Contingency Approach: Management shall be by objectives which
are pre-determined. Managers have to be highly adaptive, flexible
and innovative to cope with the varying situations.

Approaches to management thoughts

16. Fayol’s14 Schools of
Management thought
1. Division of work: Division of work or
specialization alone can give
maximum productivity and
efficiency.
2. Authority and Responsibility: The
right to give order is called Authority.
The obligation to accomplish is called
responsibility.
3. Discipline: The objectives, rules and
regulations, the policies and
procedures must be honoured by each
member of an organization.

17. 17
4. Unity of Command: In order to avoid any possible confusion and
conflict, each member of an organization must received orders and
instructions only from one superior (boss).
5. Unity of Direction: All members of an organization must work
together to accomplish common objectives.
6. Emphasis on Subordination of Personal Interest to General or
Common Interest: Also called principle of co-operation. All for one,
one for all.
7. Remuneration: Adequate financial and nonfinancial incentives.
Exploitation of employees in any manner must be eliminated.
Fayol’s14 Schools of Management thought

18. 18
8. Centralization: There must be a good balance between centralization
and decentralization of authority and power. Extremity to be avoided.
9. Scalar Chain: The unity of command brings about a chain or hierarchy
of command linking all members of the organization from the top to the
bottom.
10. Order: Fayol suggested that there is a place for everything. Order or
system alone can create a sound organization and efficient
management.
11. Equity: By equity proper justice is meant which is much important for
an organization to run smoothly.
Fayol’s14 Schools of Management thought

19. 19
12. Stability of Tenure: Employees and managers must have job
security.
13. Esprit de corps: Esprit de corps is the foundation of a sound
organization. Union is strength. But unity demands co-operation.
Pride, loyalty and sense of belonging are responsible for good
performance.
14. Initiative: Creative thinking and capacity to take initiative can give
us sound managerial planning and execution of predetermined
plans.
Fayol’s14 Schools of Management thought

20. Conclusion
20
Evolution cant be contained fully in
frames or structures which led us to
another bitter truth that we couldn’t
cover all parts of Evolution of
Management. I assure you-it’s the best
we could give. Evolution is actually a
continuous, ever lasting, unavoidable and
of course uncontainable process.
