The classical administrative school arose to focus on the total organization, rather than just individual productivity as in scientific management. Key contributors included Max Weber, who developed a theory of bureaucratic management with a clear hierarchy, division of labor, and impersonal relationships. Henry Fayol emphasized principles like authority, equity, and unity of direction. Mary Parker Follett believed labor and management shared a common purpose as members of the same organization. Chester Barnard saw that people work together to achieve organizational goals that benefit both the individual and organization.
