Luther Gulick (1937) expanded productivity by maximizing workforce effectiveness on Fayol’s management functions in his introduction of the “seven activities of management”—planning, Theories of Management organizing, staffing, directing, coordinating, reporting, I. Scientific Management (1900 to 1930) and budgeting—as denoted by the mnemonic POSDCORB. Although often modified (either by A. Frederick W.

Human Relations Management (1930 to 1970) This provides common goals and a sharing of the organizational mission. One way Taylor thought A. Mary Parker Follett (1926) was one of the first that this could be accomplished was by the use theorists to suggest basic principles of what today would of financial incentives as a reward for work be called participative decision-making or participative accomplished. Because Taylor viewed humans management.

The human relations era also attempted to correct what was perceived as the major 4.

Their roles, however, were not the same. B.

The worker was to do the work. The studies, conducted by Elton Mayo and his Harvard associates, began as an attempt to look at B.

This resulted in a greater recognition of the (1953) also found that informal work groups and a need to intertwine management and leadership than ever socially informal work environment were factors in before. determining productivity, and Mayo recommended more employee participation in decision making. II. Motivational Theories C. Douglas McGregor (1960) reinforced these ideas by A motive is a need or desire that incites and directs a theorizing that managerial attitudes about employees person's actions. Motivation according to Mills, is a force (and, hence, how managers treat those employees) can be within the individual that influences strength or direction directly correlated with employee satisfaction. He labeled of behavior. this Theory X and Theory Y. Kinds of Motivation Theory X managers believe that their 1.

Intrinsic motivation to Theory Y managers believe that their workers achieve is directly related to a person's enjoy their work, are self-motivated, and are aspirations and goals in life shaped earlier on by willing to work hard to meet personal and parents and peers. organizational goals. 2. Extrinsic motivation is enhanced by the environment or external rewards. This may come in the form of promotions, increases in salary, added benefits, or external rewards. D. Chris Argyris (1964) supported McGregor (1960) and Mayo (1953) by saying that managerial domination causes workers to become discouraged and passive. He believed that if self-esteem and independence needs are not met, employees will become discouraged and troublesome or may leave the organization. Argyris stressed the need for flexibility within the organization and employee participation in decision making. The A. Abraham’s Theory of Needs human relations era of management science brought about a great interest in the study of workers. Many sociologists and psychologists took up this challenge, and their work in management theory contributed to our understanding of worker motivation. By the late 1960s, however, there was growing concern that the human 4 Nursing Leadership, Management and Professional Adjustment- NCM 119 Cruz, Larraine Jhasmine D. BSN-4E2 1.
