Most managers develop theories about how to run the organization
Management Models represents the “real world” and how it functions
Provides a framework for organizing knowledge & a blueprint for action
– Helps us organize our knowledge
– Tells us what to pay attention to and what to ignore
– Helps us to understand why events occur (causal relationships)
– Summarizes diverse findings and highlights relationships
– Gives guidance about how to bring about positive change

• Three Types of Management Theories


– DESCRIPTIVE 80% +

• Scientific Management
– Concerned with improving the performance of
individual workers (i.e., efficiency).
– Grew out of the industrial revolution’s labor shortage
at the beginning of the twentieth century.

– A theory that focuses on
managing the total organization
rather than individuals.

• Frederick Taylor (1856–1915)
– Replaced old methods of how to do work with
scientifically-based work methods.
• Eliminated “soldiering,” where employees deliberately worked
at a pace slower than their capabilities.
– Believed in selecting, training, teaching, and
developing workers.
– Used time studies of jobs, standards planning,
exception rule of management, slide-rules, instruction
cards, and piece-work pay systems to control and
motivate employees.

job?

security; they have little ambition.
• Theory Y Assumptions
– People do not dislike work; work is a natural part of their lives.
– People are internally motivated to reach objectives to which they
are committed. People can be innovative in solving problems.
– People are committed to goals to the degree that they receive
rewards when they reach their objectives.
– People both seek and accept responsibility under favorable
conditions.
– People are bright, but under most organizational conditions their
potentials are underutilized.

• A system is an interrelated set of elements functioning
as a whole

• Open system
– An organizational system that interacts with its environment.
• Closed system
– An organizational system that does not interact with its
environment.
• Subsystems
– A system within another system. Their importance is due to their
interdependence on each other within the organization.

Entropy
• Synergy
– Subsystems are more successful working together in a
cooperative and coordinated fashion than working alone.
– The whole system (subsystems working together as one system)
is more productive and efficient than the sum of its parts.
• Entropy
– A normal process in which an organizational system declines due
to failing to adjust to change in its environment
– Entropy can be avoided and
the organization re-energized
through organizational change
and renewal.
