Explanation / Answer
1 b) Frederick Taylor
Known for his books "Shop Management", and, "The Principles of Scientific Management". His ideas determined the most efficient means of determining job processes. This would reward employees for their productivity, and, hard work. Employees should continue to increase efficiency without sacrificing quality. This approach to motivation is known as Scientific Management Theory.
2 b)
Functional approach to management; broken into tasks, with each task timed. The emphasis is on productivity, and, profitability. Time is of essence. His approach defined the functions to be performed by managers.
3 c) Deprived of control over work, tools, and, bodies
Scientific Management did not distinguish men from machines; the workers are condemned to a monotonous routine. The person is deprived of inventive genius, joy, initiative, and, individuality. It can result in overproduction, and, unemployment. As per Taylor's theory, workers should eliminate unnecessary physical movement
4. Taylorism
c) Dividing auto production into simple repetitive steps
In an assembly line, the car would be pulled up from one station to another, for a repetitive process until the construction is complete. The birth of the assembly line resulted in mass production.
5 b) Hawthorne effect
Higher productivity is achieved in case of good Human Resource relations. This evolved into "Organizational Behaviour"
Benefits of Hawthorne studies
Formed the basis of the field of Organizational Behaviour
Limitations of adult personality theory
Managers who help satisfy needs at work increase productivity
Maslow's theory does not apply to everyone
