THE HISTORICAL TRANSITION TO ADMINISTRATIVE GOVERNMENT Wilson's article divides the history of government in Europe and the United States into three parts, the first based on absolute sovereign rulers, the second on democracy and constitutions , and the third on administrative government implemented and approved through democracy : ADMINISTRATIVE POWER AND ITS RELATIONSHIP WITH DEMOCRACY According to Wilson's article, administrators must be given great power and discretion in order to perform their roles effectively and efficiently . For Wilson, this is an essential feature of administrative government , and preferable to a system that minimizes or divides and thus limits the power of administrators:
IMPROVING CONSTITUTIONAL DEMOCRACY WITH ADMINISTRATIVE METHODS Wilson's article argues that constitutional democracy must be improved by the implementation of administrative methods of government, and by the hiring of an educated, qualified civil service based on competitive examinations: Wilson's article argues that the detailed study of public administration and the use of administrative methods are necessary for the government of a complex industrial society . He suggests that the United States study and apply administrative methods employed by other governments, including undemocratic ones:

CLASSICAL THEORY It is a branch of Management Theory Evolved between late 19th century and early 20th century. To find out the best way to do the task. The classical theory of management is divided in mainly focus areas Scientific Management Administrative Management Bureaucratic Management
Scientific Management F.W. TAYLOR 1856 - 1915 Father of Scientific Management He is known as the father of Scientific Management To do a task, the best way is: Perform task with Systematic Study And with Scientific Method He believed that improved management practices led to improved productivity. F.W. Taylor believed that these three tools should be used for management Task Performance Supervision Motivation
Task Performance Scientific management incorporates basic expectations of management including: DEVELOPMENT OF WORK STANDARDS SELECTION OF WORKERS TRAINING OF WORKERS SUPPORT OF WORKERS
SUPERVISION Taylor felt that single supervisor could not be an expert at all task Managers must provides detailed instructions and supervision to each worker to ensure the job is done in a scientific way
MOTIVISION Taylor believed money was the way motivated workers to their fullest capabilities. Workers who met a standard level of production were paid a standard wage rate. Workers whose production exceeded the standard were paid at a higher rate for all of their production output
PRINCIPLES OF SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT Scientific Selection, Training and Development of Workers Close Co-Operation between Worker and Management Maximum Prosperity for both Employers & Employees Equal Division of Work and Responsibilities Mental Revolution
Scientific Management Techniques Functional Foremanship Differential Wage System/ Differential Piece Rate Scientific Study of Work Standardization of Work Work is divided into small parts and each part is assigned to an expert. Workers should work according to the given standard by the company. It means to conduct a work according to time, motion, eliminating useless activities which hinders the course of task. Wages are paid on the basis of the work done and not on the basis of time spent in doing the work.

Principles of Management Unity of Direction Centralization Remuneration of Personnel Subordination of individual interest to the common good All workers should go in one direction only which is the target of the company Workers personal interest should be secondary and company goals should be primary. Workers should be paid according to their capabilities, eligibility and task performance. The power of making any decision for the company is in the hands of top level management

Douglas McGregor DOUGLAS MCGREGOR 1906- 1964 Proposed the Theory X and Theory Y styles of management.

Theory Y managers perceive that their subordinates enjoy work and that they will gain satisfaction from performing their jobs.
C omparison of Theory X and Y Assumptions Factor Theory X Assumptions Theory Y Assumptions Employee attitude toward work Management view of direction Employee view of direction Employees dislike work and will avoid it at all possible Employees must be directed, coerced, controlled, or threatened to get them to put forth adequate effort.
