HISTORY

F W Taylor is termed as the father of scientific management and his


prime contribution in the area of management is the founding of
efficiency movement and also the start of the progressive era.

He is best known in the world of management for his study of time


and motion. What he propounded was to break the job into many
component parts and then measure each of them to the hundredth of a
minute.

.
He believed that the management of that era was amateurish and he
propounded that it should be taught as a separate discipline and to get
the best result from the work force there should be partnership between
qualified management and cooperative workforce. It was he who said
that the trade unions were irrelevant as both the sides were important
for each other's existence

F. W. Taylor contributed vastly to scientific management. He is referred


to as the father of scientific management. Taylor among others
management scholars,  he was most concern about creating a situation
that  will demand quality...
SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT

Taylor believed that the industrial management of his day was amateurish,
that management could be formulated as an academic discipline, and that
the best results would come from the partnership between a trained and
qualified management and a cooperative and innovative workforce. Each
side needed the other, and there was no need for trade unions.

CONTRIBUTION TO MANAGEMENT

Frederick W. Taylor was the first man in recorded history who


deemed work deserving of systematic observation and study. On
Taylor's 'scientific management' rests, above all, the tremendous
surge of affluence in the last seventy-five years which has lifted
the working masses in the developed countries well above any
level recorded before, even for the well-to-do. Taylor, though the
Isaac Newton (or perhaps the Archimedes) of the science of
work, laid only first foundations, however.
Not much has been added to them since - even though he has been
dead all of sixty years.
It is only through enforced standardization of methods, enforced
adoption of the best implements and working conditions, and
enforced cooperation that this faster work can be assured. And the
duty of enforcing the adoption of standards and enforcing this
cooperation rests with management alone.
