- 16. Comments by Others In the words of Urwick: “Isolation and analysis of management as a separate function was his Fayol’s, unique and original addition to the body of management theory.” The concepts and principles of Fayol have stood the test of time and form part of the modern science of management. “His contribution to the theory of management is probably the most revolutionary and constructive that has ever been made.” (Theo Haimann) Fayol was the first person to attempt to systematize management by accentuating the higher levels of control (Robbins, 1991:37).
- 17. Fayol vs. Frederick Taylor Frederick Winslow Taylor (1856-1915), another theorist of the time, studied efficiency techniques in his 1911 book the Principles of Scientific Management Taylor worked primarily on the operative level, from the bottom of the industrial hierarchy upwards Fayol concentrated on the managing director and worked downwards Taylor known as the father of scientific management where Fayol known as the father of administrative theory in management
- 18. Criticism Fayol did not conduct research or provided empirical data rather his work was from his own experience and observations
- 19. Conclusion Remarkable Contribution to the Administrative Theory in Management His work is referred to as Fayolism Developed 5 functions and 14 principals of management Devoted his life teaching his administrative theory His work contributed to scientific management as Taylor did First theorist in modern general management Fayol’s words – “The administrative apparatus is further a concept for very wide application. Not only is it useful to those who may have been managing or controlling an industrial undertaking but to my mind its absence is fundamental weakness in our public services, and I cannot imagine better service to our country than to ensure its application by the state”
