DEFINITION OF MANAGEMENT Lesson 1: Nature and Concept of Management MANAGEMEN T “process of coordinating and overseeing the work performance of individuals working together in organizations, so that they could efficiently and effectively accomplish their chosen aims or 4 MANAGEMEN T “is the process of planning, organizing, leading, and controlling the activities of an organization effectively and efficiently to achieve its goals.” 5 MANAGEMEN T “Management is the art of directing and inspiring people”. – J.

HISTORY OF MANAGEMENT Lesson 1: Nature and Concept of Management HISTORY OF MANAGEMENT 37 HISTORY OF MANAGEMENT 38 7. MANAGEMENT THEORIES Lesson 1: Nature and Concept of Management SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT THEORY “a theory of management which studies the application of scientific methods and principles to redesign the work process to increase efficiency.” 40 SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT THEORY Frederick W. Taylor, an American engineer, was the first to advocate scientific management. He found that the main cause of inefficiency and wastage in factories was ignorance on the part of workers and management because of the use of Traditional, unscientific rules and rules of thumb. 41 SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT THEORY 1. Replace rule-of-thumb methods with those that are scientifically proven. 2. Select, train, and develop each worker based on scientific methods. 3. Cooperate with workers to ensure that scientific methods are being observed and implemented in their work. 4. Divide work between managers and workers to ensure that the managers apply scientific management principles in planning the tasks and workers apply the principles while performing these tasks. 42 SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT THEORY 43 SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT THEORY Frank and Lillian Gilbreth believed in regulation and consistency in the workplace. Rather than encouraging a company of many working parts, they valued efficiency above all else. 44 SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT THEORY This automobile is the product of the applied scientific principles in improving the process of assembling parts as he installed a moving assembly line where workers could concentrate on one task such as the installation of a specific automobile part. 45 SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT THEORY 46 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY “focuses on the overall management of an organization, emphasizing the role of managers as administrators of the organization.” 47 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY Henri Fayol identified five functions and fourteen principles of management. The five functions are planning, organizing, communicating, coordinating, and controlling. 48 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY 49 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY Division of work: specialization allows the individual to build up expertise and therefore be more productive; Authority: the right to issue commands, along with the appropriate responsibility; Discipline: two-sided - employees obey orders only if management play their part by providing good leadership; Unity of command: one man-one boss, with no other conflicting lines of command; Unity of direction: staff involved in the same activities should have the same objectives; 50 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY Subordination of individual interest to general interest: the interests of the organization must come first over any group, just as the interests of any agreed team objectives should come first over the individual; Remuneration: should be fair and equitable, encourage productivity by rewarding well-directed effort, should not be subject to abuse; Centralization: there is no formula to advocate centralisation or decentralisation; much depends on the optimum operating conditions of the business; Scalar chain: lateral communication is fundamental; communication should be open within the chain of command; Order: Avoidance of duplication and waste through good organization; 51 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY Equity: "A combination of kindliness and justice" in dealing with employees; Stability of tenure: The more successful the business, the more stable the management. Initiative: Encouraging people to use their initiative is a source of strength for the organization. Esprit de corps: Management must foster and develop the morale of its employees and encourage each employee to use their abilities. 52 BUREAUCRATIC THEORY Max Weber’s profound influence on sociological theory stems from his demand for objectivity in scholarship and from his analysis of the motives behind human action. 53 BUREAUCRATI C THEORY 54 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY Chester Barnard highlights the major functions of the senior executive, namely (1) to formulate the organization’s mission, (2) to hire key employees, and (3) to maintain organizational communication. 55 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY 56 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY Mary Parker Follet recognized the human element in management and emphasized collaboration and mutual cooperation in seeking solutions to problems. 57 ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY 58 HUMAN RELATIONS THEORY “It focuses on the social element in the workplace and considers the influence of interpersonal relationships, social conditioning, and group norms in determining the workers’ 59 HUMAN RELATIONS THEORY Elton Mayo, together with his colleagues, came up with these innovative outcomes: (1) introduction of a set number of work hours, (2) the implementation of break times for workers, (3) improvements in lighting in work areas, and (4) close supervision by managers. 60 HUMAN RELATIONS THEORY 61 HUMAN RELATIONS THEORY Abraham Maslow introduced the Hierarchy of Needs where a certain person try to satisfy himself first in lower-level of basic needs such as food, water, clothing, and shelter and then progress upward to higher-level needs such as self-esteem and self- actualization. 62 HUMAN RELATIONS THEORY 63 QUANTITATIVE MANAGEMENT THEORY “Quantitative management uses quantitative approaches such as statistical analyses and computer simulations to arrive at management decisions.” 64 QUANTITATIVE MANAGEMENT Two main branches: Management Science – uses mathematics in problem-solving and decision-making. It seeks to create ideal models that will be the basis for improved business operations and processes. Operations management – seeks to apply ideas and models from management science to the actual workplace in dealing with managerial situations. 65 QUANTITATIVE MANAGEMENT 66 SYSTEM THEORY “The systems theory explains how interrelated parts operate together to achieve a common purpose.” 67 SYSTEM THEORY It defines an organization as a system which is composed of four elements: (1)Inputs (human resources/materials) (2)Transformation processes (managerial operations/technology) (3)Outputs (products/services), and (4)Feedback (reactions from the environment). 68 SYSTEM THEORY 69 OPEN vs. CLOSED SYSTEM Open System Closed System refers to an refers to an organization organization that that does not interact interacts closely with its environment with its environment and pays little and is fully aware of what is going on in attention to changes the environment as in its surroundings. well as the changes it experiences. 70 SYSTEM THEORY 71 CONTINGENCY THEORY “argues that universal theories cannot be applied to organizations because each organization has unique characteristics and is confronted by varied problems or challenges.” 72 CONTIGENCY THEORY This theory was introduced in 1967 by Fred Fiedler, an industrial an organizational psychologist who studies the relationship between leadership and group effectiveness. Fiedler’s contingency model states that the leader’s personality determines how well he or she addresses situations in the workplace. 73 CONTINGENCY THEORY 74 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY “highlights consistency in an organization and minimal to no error or defects in production. This ensures quality products and services resulting to high customer satisfaction and increased revenue.” 75 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY 76 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY William Edwards Deming conducted his work in the 1950s in post-war Japan and his methods involved statistical process control (SPC) and problem- solving techniques. Deming’s significant principles include improved product design for improved service, uniform product quality, improved product testing, and increased market sales. actualization. 77 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY 78 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY Joseph Moses Juran also worked with Japanese businesses and introduced his concept of quality management which emphasized training for top and middle managers. 79 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY - JURAN 80 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY 81 KAIZEN “Introduced in 1986 it focuses on the continuous improvement of people, processes, and products. It is a Japanese word which means “change for the better” and requires the implementation of gradual changes in an industry or organization over a certain period.” 82 QUALITY MANAGEMENT THEORY - KAIZEN 83 84
