ABSTRACT
The bureaucratic and administrative theories discussed in the preceding chapter are eminently unpsychological in that they pay little attention to individual motivation. In principle, they recognize esprit de corps and morale, as general motivational forces, but they do not explore these forces in detail. However, near the turn of the century, F. W. Taylor (162) helped launch a movement called scientific management. This movement has had a significant impact on organizational practice, and the principles upon which it is based contrast with those of bureaucratic and administrative theory in that scientific management pays greater attention to the organization member, to the details of his work behavior, and to his job motivation.
