The Management Theories in Different Time Periods.

-

 1. The Four General management Theories .

Also known as the historical development and changing context.

1.1      Classical organizational theories

Scientific management theory concerned the optimization of individual workers and work processes. During the same period, classical organization theory complimented scientific management by providing a framework for the structuring the organization. The leading proponents of classical organization theory were Henri Fayol (a French engineer), Lyndall Urwick (a British company manager), and Max Weber (a German sociologist).

First the Henri Fayol who was a director in coal mining organization realized that the management principles are important rather than personal traits. And with this he bought Fayol’s 5 management functions.



 


1.2  Scientific Management Theory (1890-1940)

This theory was bought by Frederick Taylor he said that all the task of an organization should be well specific, measured and determine “The one best way”  to perform each job. For this one best way to work the organization should follow the following steps.




 

 

1.3 Bureaucratic Management Theory (1930-1950)

Max weber developed this theory by bringing together the scientific and his bureaucratic theory. In his theory he thought of dividing the organizations into hierarchies which will make a strong line of authority and control. And also the organization should have a standard procedure for the entire task that they perform.




1.4 Human Relation Movement (1930-today)

When the time all these scientific and bureaucratic theories the government and the unions realized that these theories are dehumanizing then everyone started to given more attention to the individuals and their unique capabilities of the organization and they start to believe that the human is the most important power in the organization and all the organizations then started to have Human Resource Departments with this the Organizational Behavior science started to be strong within the organizations which helps to understand the needs of the workers and align it with the organizational works.

    Little addition to your blog, Sociologist George Elton Mayo is the founder of human relations movement in 1930s. That was after a series of experiments known as the Hawthorne studies. Which focused on exploring the link between employee satisfaction, wellbeing and work place productivity.

    I felt if you should have done little more research on the present context since after 1930 there is a revolution, and The Caption is very attractive.
