These slides will give you fair idea about planning like what is planning, how to do it and what points should be kept in mind while planning for any business idea.
Management involves coordinating group efforts to achieve goals. It is both an art and a science. As an art, it involves personal skills like decision making. As a science, it has principles that can be studied and tested. Management is also a process that includes planning, organizing, leading and controlling. It is the task of managers to ensure resources are used efficiently and effectively. Scientific management aims to optimize work through time and motion studies to maximize efficiency.
PRINCIPLES OF MANAGEMENT lecture notesBala Murugan
Management involves coordinating the efforts of people (men, machines, materials, money) to accomplish organizational goals in an efficient manner. It can be viewed as both an art and a science. As an art, management requires personal skills and creativity to achieve practical results. As a science, it involves developing and applying principles and theories through research. Key figures in the evolution of management thought include Fayol, who developed 14 principles of management, and Taylor, who pioneered scientific management focusing on time/motion studies. Effective management is important for organizations to utilize resources optimally and meet challenges.
Scientific management emerged between 1910-1935 and was pioneered by Frederick Taylor, Henry Gannt, Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, Luther Gulick, Max Weber, and Henri Fayol. They approached management in a scientific manner using tools like research, analysis, and standardization of tasks. Taylor is known for his time and motion studies and piece-rate payment systems. Gannt developed charting methods and incentive plans. The Gilbreths analyzed motions to reduce wasted time. Gulick established principles of administration and coordination. Weber described bureaucratic organization and authority. Fayol identified functions and principles of management. Scientific management emphasized efficiency and standardized work processes.
The document discusses the historical evolution of management approaches from classical to modern theories. It covers classical approaches like scientific management which emphasized efficient work methods. Next it discusses administrative management which focused on managing the entire organization. The human relations movement highlighted the importance of human behavior and motivation, as shown through the Hawthorne Studies. Finally, behavioral science and quality management introduced a more holistic and contingency-based view of organizational management.
The document summarizes key points from a lecture on management theory and practice. It introduces concepts from prominent management thinkers like F.W. Taylor on scientific management, Charles Handy on organization theory, Peter Drucker on management principles, Alfred Sloan on organizational structure, and Henry Mintzberg on management roles. The lecture aims to analyze different management styles, apply theory to practical realities of organizations, and understand the foundations of management theories and principles.
This document provides an overview of several classic management theories and theorists. It discusses early contributors like practicing managers and social scientists. It then covers some of the earliest theories from managers like Fayol and Taylor, who focused on efficiency and structure. Later, social scientists like Mayo shifted attention to human factors and motivation. Maslow and McGregor contributed motivation theories like the hierarchy of needs and Theory X/Theory Y. More recent approaches include Theory Z and systems thinking, with organizations viewed as open systems.
Scientific management is a theory of management that was developed by Frederick Winslow Taylor in the 1880s-1890s. The theory aimed to improve economic efficiency, especially labor productivity, through analyzing and establishing optimized workflow processes. Some key elements of scientific management include selecting the best employees for each job, determining the one best way to perform each job, implementing a system of financial incentives like pay-per-piece work. While it aimed to increase efficiency, scientific management has been criticized for being too focused on specialization and individual performance over group efforts and innovation. It also prioritized monetary motivations over employee development.

2. Several management theorists are discussed, including their definitions of management and contributions to the field.
3. The five universal management functions are identified as planning, organizing, coordinating, motivating, and controlling.
Fredric Winslow Taylor was an American mechanical engineer known as the father of scientific management. He worked to improve industrial efficiency by finding the "one best way" to do tasks through scientific investigation rather than relying on opinion or rule of thumb. The principles of scientific management include using science rather than intuition for managerial decision making, promoting harmony between management and workers through cooperation rather than individualism or conflict, and developing each person's maximum efficiency and prosperity through proper job placement, training, and selection of workers.
This document discusses the evolution of management theories including scientific management, administrative management, systems approach, and contingency approach. It provides details on scientific management pioneers like Taylor and the Gilbreths and their contributions like time and motion studies. It also summarizes Taylor's 14 principles of management and administrative theory. Finally, it describes key concepts of the systems approach in viewing an organization as an open system that interacts with its external environment.
Frederick Taylor developed the theory of scientific management in the late 19th/early 20th century based on his experiences as an engineer seeking to improve industrial efficiency. The key aspects of scientific management include standardized work tasks based on time and motion studies, scientific selection and training of workers, functional foremanship with separate planning and implementation roles, and incentive-based differential piece rate wages. The goal is to maximize productivity through eliminating inefficiencies and creating harmony between workers and managers with shared goals of increased efficiency and prosperity.
Here are the key differences between policies and procedures:
- Policies outline general guidelines and philosophies, while procedures provide specific step-by-step instructions.
- Policies explain the "why" behind actions, while procedures explain the "how".
- Policies allow for some flexibility, while procedures aim to standardize processes.
- Policies communicate values and culture, while procedures ensure tasks are completed consistently.
- Policies apply broadly, while procedures focus on specific routine tasks.
So in summary, policies provide the overarching framework while procedures operationalize policies into concrete workflows. Both are important for effective planning and management.

Group D presented on Scientific Management Theory by Frederick Taylor and Bureaucratic Theory by Max Weber. Taylor focused on optimizing work processes for higher efficiency through systematic study of relationships between people and tasks. Weber analyzed bureaucracy as a form of organization defined by hierarchy, division of labor, qualifications, and rules. Both theories aimed to bring rationality and predictability to organizational management.
Scientific Management was a theory of management that analyzed and synthesized workflows with the goal of improving economic efficiency, especially labor productivity. It was developed by Frederick Winslow Taylor in the 1880s and 1890s. Taylor believed that by studying work scientifically, managers could identify the most efficient ways to do jobs. He is considered the father of scientific management. While originally applied only to manufacturing and industry, scientific management principles aimed to bring mental change, systematic processes, and harmony between managers and workers.
The document summarizes classical management theories including scientific management, administrative management, and bureaucratic management. Scientific management focused on improving efficiency through tasks analysis, time-motion studies, and differential wages. Administrative management principles emphasized division of work, authority and responsibility, and discipline. Bureaucratic management was based on firm rules, hierarchies, and impersonal treatment of workers. Later, the human relations movement arose in response to classical theories, emphasizing that human factors are important for productivity and management style.
Differences between Scientific Mgt. & Behavioural ApproachYadiy Zak-One
Scientific Management and the Behavioral Approach differ in their views of organizing workers but share some similarities. Scientific Management, developed by Frederick Taylor in the 1890s, focuses on scientifically studying work methods to improve efficiency. The Behavioral Approach, which began in the late 1800s, emphasizes understanding human behavior and treating employees as important assets. Both aim to increase productivity, though Scientific Management does so through task optimization and the Behavioral Approach through consideration of social and psychological factors.
The document discusses the early development of management thought from classical, behavioral, quantitative, and integrating perspectives. It covers several influential thinkers and their contributions, including: Frederick Taylor's scientific management principles focusing on efficiency; Henri Fayol's emphasis on administration; Max Weber's bureaucracy theory; and the Hawthorne Studies highlighting the human relations movement. The classical perspective aimed to increase organizational efficiency, while behavioral studies considered social and psychological factors. Overall, the document provides a broad overview of the evolution of management theories and thinkers from early industrialization to modern approaches.

Generalized capital investment planning of oil-refineries using MILP and sequ...optimizatiodirectdirect
Abstract
Performing capital investment planning (CIP) is traditionally done using linear (LP) or nonlinear (NLP) models whereby a gamut of scenarios are generated and manually searched to make expand and/or install decisions. Though mixed-integer nonlinear (MINLP) solvers have made significant advancements, they are often slow for industrial expenditure optimizations. We propose a more tractable approach using mixed-integer linear (MILP) model and input-output (Leontief) models whereby the nonlinearities are approximated to linearized operations, activities, or modes in large-scaled flowsheet problems. To model the different types of CIP's known as revamping, retrofitting, and repairing, we unify the modeling by combining planning balances with the scheduling concepts of sequence-dependent changeovers to represent the construction, commission, and correction stages explicitly. Similar applications can be applied to process design synthesis, asset allocation and utilization, and turnaround and inspection scheduling. Two motivating examples illustrate the modeling, and a retrofit example and an oil-refinery investment planning are highlighted.
- Optimization Direct is an IBM business partner that sells CPLEX optimization software and provides consulting services to help customers implement optimization solutions and maximize the benefits of IBM's software.
- The document discusses how to address modeling and optimization challenges for very large optimization models, including exploiting sparsity, tightening formulations, tuning the optimizer, and using heuristics to find good solutions within time limits.
- As an example, the document describes a heuristic scheduling approach that delivers solutions within 12-16% optimality gaps for large scheduling models that cannot be solved directly, outperforming serial solutions and providing speedups of 2-8x when run in parallel.

The document discusses several theories of motivation:
- Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory proposes that people are motivated to fulfill basic needs before moving on to other needs.
- Herzberg's two-factor theory separates motivators and hygiene factors that influence job satisfaction and dissatisfaction.
- Alderfer's ERG theory compressed Maslow's hierarchy into three categories: existence, relatedness, and growth needs.
- Vroom's expectancy theory focuses on outcomes and individual factors that influence effort, performance, and motivation.
Functional leadership theory focuses on tasks rather than people, with the goal of maximizing organizational effectiveness. It argues leaders should ensure tasks are completed rather than focusing on employee feelings. John Adair expanded on this with his three-circle model emphasizing tasks, teams, and individual needs. His eight leadership functions provide a framework for functional leadership, including defining tasks, planning, briefing teams, and leading by example. Research found strong associations between school leaders' functional practices and teacher morale as well as student achievement and belongingness. Effective principals promote teacher learning and accountability through collaboration.
The Influence of Leadership on Followers Performance among Bottle Water Compa...Dr. Amarjeet Singh
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between leadership style and followers' performance in bottle water companies in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. It identified democratic, autocratic, participative, and transactional leadership styles as the independent variables, and followers' performance as the dependent variable.
A questionnaire was distributed to 100 employees across several bottle water companies, with a response rate of 90%. The results found that democratic leadership had a mean range of 3.04-3.34 and was agreed to have a high impact on followers' performance. Autocratic leadership obtained a mean range of 3.20-3.50 and was also agreed to highly impact performance. Overall, the study concluded that leadership styles positively impact followers, but each style
The document discusses different concepts and approaches in management. It defines management as getting work done through others to accomplish goals. Management involves integrating human and physical resources and is both an art and a science. Key approaches discussed include scientific management, which focuses on standardization and incentives, and the human relations approach from the Hawthorne experiments, which emphasized social factors in output. Modern approaches include the systems approach and contingency approach. The document also covers concepts like bureaucracy, business ethics, and social responsibility.
Management is the process of coordinating human and physical resources to achieve organizational goals. It involves planning, organizing, leading, and controlling organizational activities. A manager's primary roles are to plan work, organize resources, lead and motivate employees, and ensure goals are met through monitoring performance. Effective managers require strong communication, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills. While management principles provide guidelines, applying them requires judgment and adaptation based on the situation as management involves both science and art.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
