PYSCHOLOGICAL APPROACH
A number of individuals offered
ideas that laid the groundwork for
subsequent, broader inquiries into
the nature of management. Among
the principal contributors to the
early management period are Robert
Owen, Charles Babbage and Henry R
Towne.

ROBERT OWEN (1771-1858):
•Basically a successful British entrepreneur was well
ahead of his time in recognizing the importance of
human resources.
•He became particularly interested in the working
and living conditions of his employees while
running cotton mill in New Lanark, Scotland.
•Owen tried to improve the living condition of the
employees by upgrading streets, houses, sanitation
and the educational system in New Lanark.
• His ideas laid the groundwork for the human
relations movement, which is discussed later in this
chapter.

CHARLES BABAGE (1792-1871):
•An English mathematician is widely known as the father of
modern computing. His projects produced the world‘s first
practical mechanical calculator and an analytical engine that
had the basic element of a modern day computer.
•Difficulties in directing his various projects, however, helped
him to explore new ways of doing things. In the process, he
made direct contributions to management theory.
•Babbage was enthralled with the idea of work specialization,
the decree to which work was divided into various jobs.
•He recognized that not only physical work but mental work
as well could be specialized.
•Babbage also devised a profit- sharing plan that had two parts,
a bonus that was awarded for useful suggestions and a portion
of wages that was depended on factory profit.

HENRY R. TOWNE
•He was a President of a lock manufacturing company.
•Towne argued that there were good engineers and good
businessmen, but seldom were they one and the same.
•Townewas also known for creating a modern system of
scientificmanagement, blending the production and
engineering of goods withmanagementand economics.
MAJOR FEATURES OF PRE-CLASSICAL THEORY:
•Robert Owen: Advocated concerns for the working and living
conditions of workers.
•Charles Babbage: Built the first practical mechanical
calculator and a prototype of modern computers: predicted
the specialization of mental work and suggested profit
sharing.
•Henry R. Towne: Outlined the importance of management
as a science and called for the development of management
principles.

Bureaucratic Model
•PropoundedbyMaxWebberintheyear1920
•AGermansociologistandateacheratBerlin
University
•Accordingtohim,recognitionandexerciseof
authoritywasafundamentalquestion
•ThreetypesofAuthority-Charismatic,
TraditionalandBUREAUCRATIC.
•Hismodelincludedthefollowing:
1.SeparationofSuperiorandSubordinate.
2.DivisionofLabour.
6/20/2023

Contd..
3.Clear divorce between personal and official
matters.
4.System of rules, regulations and procedures.
5.Hierarchy is based on legal authority and
power.
•CHARACTERISTICS:
Division of work, Hierarchy of work, rules and
regulations, staffing, impersonal conduct,
Technical competence.
6/20/2023

Contd..
•BENEFITS:
1.Employeesboundtofollowrulesand
regulations
2.Clearly defined duties and responsibilities
3.Division of labour
4.Selection process is merit based
5.Organisation does not suffer when people
quit.
6/20/2023

Contd..
•DISADVANTAGES:
1.System suffers from red tapism.
2.No belongingness
3.Resistance to change
4.Rigidity

TAYLOR’S CONTRIBUTIONS
In his famous book Principles of Scientific
Management published in 1911, they are:
•Science and not the rule of thumb
•Harmony, not discard
•Cooperation not individualism
•Maximum output in place of restricted output
•Developing all workers to the fullest extent
possible for their own and their organisation’s
highest prosperity.
6/20/2023

•Time and Motion study-advocated that workers are
not working according to their potential. Hence he
advocated for method study to find best method of
doing a job, and time study to find time required for
doing a job by a normal worker so that all works can
be standardized.
•DifferentialPaymentSystem-tomotivateemployees

6/20/2023
•Similarity of tasks-Repetitive jobs may not
require close supervision and thus wider span
can be used. For non-routine tasks narrow
span is used.
•Time required for non supervisory activities-If
a manager or a supervisor needs to attend
more non supervisory activities then he may
have little time to attend subordinates and
narrow span is required.
