Frederic Taylor's first job as a foreman of a machine shop. He applied his organizational skills to finding the most efficient way to cut metal and along the way invented High Speed Steel.

Hi,Nadia

Great, great! I've seen several videos on the topic and this one is really comprehensive and at the same time not even a long video.

[@orgcomm]

Thank you, Scarlett. I'm glad it was a helpful video.

[@skellermann]

Yes! Since you replied so quickly... my textbook also mentions H. Simon along these three authors. Would you say it is logical to put them together?

[@orgcomm]

Herbert Simon? If so, he was born around the time these guys were writing. I'm not very familiar with Simon's work but it wouldn't surprise me to see him in a reading mentioned alongside these three for a more recent application of this same type of thinking. What type of class/textbook is it?

[@skellermann]

Ah ok, good to know. Organizational Theory is the name of the textbook.

Max weber took a big picture, bureaucratic approach. Fredrick Taylor took a micro level approach, Henry Fayol took a mid level managerial. They wanted a clear hierarchy that chained command, wanted some form of division of labor, standardised work approach, centralization of authority, separation of personal life and organization, wanted the best people in the right job.

12) How would a classical manager begin to implement Classical Management Theory? A. By asking employees which jobs they would like to perform B. By breaking down the production process into specific steps or stages C. By scheduling mandatory employee training sessions D. By arranging factory machinery in the most efficient way E. By adding new employee benefits

[@eduardodifarnecio2336]

The slides are interesting. People of color building burgers on a production line. Sculpted young white males chilling and playing like so many young Athenians at the School of Athens cause they’re “the thinkers”. The more things change...I just finished reading Cheeper By The Dozen and Brave New World so all of a sudden this management theories are fascinating, appalling and eye opening. Your presentations are clear, direct, informative and enjoyable. Thank you. PS: Your image choices are simply a reflection of our reality.

[@orgcomm]

Interesting point, Eduardo. I think you are accurate but it also depends on the host community, especially in the US, as the photos show. I grew up around a lot of factories and it was a mostly white community and the factories were mainly filled with poor and working-class white males and females (roughly 50/50) back in the day. Now, that community has changed and more people of color also work in those factories. I think the key difference is education level and that cuts across nations. In China, for example, the citizens who come from either rural or inner-city areas work in factories. The same is true for India and these (and many others) are largely racially homogeneous countries. Race makes little difference in those countries where everybody is the same race. The manufacturing jobs, shipping jobs, etc. don't require a higher education but working at most offices does require a bachelors degree. So, I think you raise an interesting point, yes. I'll just add to that the idea that we see the same types of stratification around the world where race isn't a key variable. It's one of the reasons I went into education. It's probably the #1 way for people of all backgrounds to advance. In a heterogeneous country like the US, we certainly do see the type of racial stratification shown in the photos.

Hi I'm confused, I thought that Frank Gilbreth and Lillian Moller Gilbreth (associates of Taylors) were actually responsible for the brick laying improvements/ Couldyou help clear that up. I guess i have something wrong sorry.

[@orgcomm]

You are correct about that, Michael. Since publishing the video, I read that Taylor worked with that team and perhaps taught them about his approach to time and motion studies and they took it further by using film. I've seen Taylor get credit (which is where I was when I made the video) but it sounds like he is getting credit merely by association and showing them the ropes. I appreciate the comment. I wish I could go back and edit a video after it was published by it doesn't work that way. But, I'll make a note of it in the description below the video so that people can see and Gilbreth's can get credit.
