 The Art of Efficiency:
How Scientific and Bureaucratic
Theories Revolutionized Modern
Management
Introduction

Welcome to ‘The Art of Efficiency’ presentation. In this

talk, we will explore how scientific and bureaucratic
theories have revolutionized modern management. We will
discuss the key principles of these theories and their impact
on organizational efficiency.
 Scientific
Management
Theory
F.W.Taylor
 F.W Taylor – Father of Scientific Management
Theory(1856-1915).
 He rose from the rank of an ordinary laborer to
the position of Chief Engineer.
 Conducted several experiments and concluded
that the amount of work a laborer was doing was
far less as compared to what he was supposed to
be doing.
 Hence, he proposed a number of suggestions to
solve this problem and in doing so he gave a
scientific outlook to management.
The Scientific Management Theory

The scientific management theory,

developed by Frederick Taylor, focuses on
improving efficiency by optimizing work
processes and standardizing tasks. This
theory emphasizes the importance of time
and motion studies to identify the most
efficient ways of performing tasks.

importance of clear rules and procedures in
achieving organizational efficiency. This theory
emphasis the need for a hierarchical structure,
with clear lines authority and a division.
Principle of Bureaucratic management

 Hierarchy of authority
 Division of labour(specialization)
 Clearly defined rules and regulation
 Impersonal relationship
 Formal selection of employees
 Career development
Benefit of Bureaucratic management
 Division of Works Leads to Specialization
 Brings Regularity in the conduct of employee
 Competence being the basis of promotion, it increases the
efficiency of the employee
 Organisation Grows rapidly
Criticisms of Bureaucratic management

 Paper formality Increases

 Red- Tapism Increases
