Fredrick Taylor Management Theories
Fredrick Taylor Management Theories
Taylor believes that employees should be given specific tools to work with in order for
them to be more productive, hence anyone that is not productive after needed tools have
been given should be fired. This style of management approach is better in a mechanised
operation but do not fit into a human relation approach to management, it does not give
room for personal initiatives and teamwork within the organization.
Regardless of the level of critics this style of management has attracted, it has proven to be
more acceptable in the oil and gas industries across the world, taking Shell petroleum
company of Nigeria as an example, they are known to be a company that pay higher
incentives to their employees as a means of driving forces for performance and
productivity. Any employee that is found not productive within the organization should
be ready to be shown the exit door out of the company payroll system.
