The document discusses the concept of scientific management developed by Frederick Taylor in the early 20th century. Taylor believed work could be optimized through scientific analysis to determine the most efficient processes. This involved breaking down jobs into small, simple tasks and establishing a staff of specialists to determine optimum work methods. While it increased efficiency, workers found the work boring and skills were de-emphasized. There was also worker resentment over the loss of control and autonomy. However, Taylor's ideas still influence modern management practices like work standardization and productivity measurement.

Theory and Principle of Scientific Management/TaylorismBigin Gyawali
Scientific management theory is a method of improving efficiency in the workforce.
As its name implies, this management theory uses scientific methods to assess work processes.
The scientific method consists of three steps:
Observation
Experimentation
Analysis
Frederick Winslow Taylor, often referred to as the 'Father of Scientific Management,' demonstrated the applicability of scientific methods in management.
His focus was on both supervisory and operational levels of management.
Taylor's five management principles are central to his approach.

Scientific managment and bureauractricapproach part 1
1. What are Organizations?
Whether we are aware of it or not, we have at some stage in our lives belonged to
at least one organisation. We also can quite easily identify organisations. These
organisations can be international (e.g. the World Bank), national (e.g.
Parliament and the National Health Service), or local (e.g. a local charity). But
what exactly is an organisation? Most of us would consider it to be composed of a
number of people, but would we say it also consists of the buildings that the
group of people use?
We can thus arrive at a working definition to assist us in understanding what an
organisation is. We can say that organisations ‘are (1) social entities that (2) are
goal-directed, (3) are designed as deliberately structured and co-ordinated
activities systems, and (4) are linked to the external environment’ (Daft 2007,
p10).
Classical approach to Organisation Structure:
The classical approach is sub-divided into two major grouping
1. Scientific management and
2. Bureaucracy
2. Scientific Management – F.W. Taylor
Scientific Management originated in the beginning of the 20th
century, and
Frederick W.Taylor was the primary contributor. Scientific management was
based on an idea of systematization where attempts were made to enhance the
efficiency of procedures to best effect via scientific analyses and experiments.
Taylor believed that it was possible to prescribe the processes that resulted in
maximum output with a minimum input of energy and resources. Thus, Taylor’s
starting point was the individual work process, which had considerable
consequences throughout the system. The structure had to be adapted to the
focus that was put on work processes, and in doing so; the manager lost his
governing role as he was subjected to scientifically calculated solutions.
Therefore, it was necessary to establish a staff of specialists who were capable of
determining the optimum work processes. Since the employee and his handling of
work processes was the starting point, Taylor’s approach is categorized as a
bottom up approach.
Principles to guide management
Taylor was a believer in the rational–economic needs concept of motivation. He
believed that if management acted on his ideas, work would become more
satisfying and profitable for all concerned. Workers would be motivated by
obtaining the highest possible wages through working in the most efficient and
productive way. Taylor was concerned with finding more efficient methods and
procedures for co-ordination and control of work.
He set out a number of principles to guide management. These principles are
usually
summarised as:
the development of a true science for each person’s work;
the scientific selection, training and development of the workers;
co-operation with the workers to ensure work is carried out in the
prescribed way;
3. the division of work and responsibility between management and the
workers.
Application:
Scientific Management was quickly adapted by large mass-producing industrial
companies. Henry Ford is the most outstanding example of what is characterized
as the “industrial revolution”. From studies of time and carefully determined
educational skills, cars were now constructed by mass production in fixed,
machine-like procedures, which created a new ism – Fordism.
Reactions against scientific management
There were strong criticisms of, and reaction against, scientific management
methods from the workers who found the work boring and requiring little skill.
Despite these criticisms Taylor attempted to expand the implementation of his
ideas in the Bethlehem Steel Corporation. However, fears of mass redundancies
persuaded the management to request Taylor to moderate his activities. Yet
Taylor’s belief in his methods was so strong that he would not accept
management’s interference and eventually they dispensed with his services.
The conclusion of the committee was that scientific management did provide
some useful techniques and offered valuable organisational suggestions, but gave
production managers a dangerously high level of uncontrolled power. The studies
at Watertown Arsenal were resumed but the unions retained an underlying
hostility towards scientific management. A subsequent attitude survey among the
workers revealed a broad level of resentment and hostility, by both union and
non-union members, to scientific management methods. As a result of this report
the Senate banned Taylor’s methods of time study in defence establishments
Impetus to management thinking (Modern application)
Whatever the opinions on scientific management, Taylor and his disciples have
left to modern management the legacy of such practices as work study,
organization and methods, payment by results, management by exception and
production control. The development of mass assembly line work (‘Fordism’),
which was invented by Henry Ford in 1913 and which dominated production
methods in Western economies, can be seen to have many common
4. links with the ideas of scientific management.21 The concept of Six Sigma can also
be related to Taylor’s quest for ‘systematic management’. For example, in his
book on the future of management, Hamel makes the following observation:
One can imagine Taylor looking down from his well-ordered heaven and smiling
fondly at the Six Sigma acolytes who continue to spread his gospel. (His only
surprise might be that 21st-century managers are still obsessing over the same
problems that occupied his inventive mind a hundred years
earlier.)22
The principles of Taylor’s scientific approach to management appear still to have
relevance today. We can see examples of Taylorism alive and well, and
management practices based on the philosophy of his ideas. As an example,
Figure 2.2 shows a ‘Hanger Insertion Programme’ for a large American
department store. Large hotel organisations often make use of standard recipes
and performance standard manuals and it is common for housekeeping
staff to have a prescribed layout for each room, with training based on detailed
procedures and the one best way. Staff may be expected to clean a given number
of rooms per shift with financial incentives for additional rooms. The strict
routine, uniformity, clearly specified tasks, detailed checklists and close control in
fast-food restaurants such as McDonald’s also suggest close links with scientific
management.
Whatever else Taylor did, at least he gave a major impetus to the development of
management thinking and the later development of organisational behaviour. For
example, Crainer and Dearlove suggest that although Taylor’s theories are now
largely outdated, they still had a profound impact throughout the world and his
mark can be seen on much of the subsequent management literature.23 And
Stern goes a stage further:
The ‘scientific management’ of Frederick Taylor . . . shaped the first coherent
school of thought with application to the industrialised world. He was our first
professional guru and Taylorism – with its twin goals of productivity and efficiency
– still influences management thinking 100 years on.24
It is difficult to argue against the general line of Taylor’s principles but they are
subject to misuse. What is important is the context and manner in which such
principles are put into effect. There is arguably one best way technically to
perform a job, particularly, for example, with factory assembly line production.
However, account needs to be taken of human behavior. People tend to have
5. their preferred way of working and the need for variety and more interesting or
challenging tasks. Provided work is carried out safely and to a satisfactory
standard and completed on time, to what extent should management insist on
the ‘one best way’?
