BUREAUCRATIC THEORY-
• It is based on the concept of formal organization on the principles of structure, specialization,
rationality, democracy and stability.
• Organizations should look like the government and the legal system.
• One’s authority should be tied to the official position he or she occupies.
SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT-

• Taylor developed the 4 principles of scientific management for improving the productivity:
• Science, not rule of thumb.
• Scientific selection of the worker
• Management and labor cooperation rather than conflict.
• Scientific training of the worker.

ADMINISTRATIVE THEORY-
• The elements of administrative theory related to
the accomplishment of tasks, and include
principles of management, the concept of line
and staff, committees and functions of
management.
CONTINGENCY THEORY
• It was given by Fred Edward Fiedler.
• It deals primarily with conflict.
• Conflict is unavoidable but manageable.
• Organizations evolve to meet their own strategic
needs in rational, sequential and linear ways.
• Adapting to changes in environment is important to
managerial and organizational success.
NEO-CLASSICAL THEORY

• It is the modification of the classical theory and tries to


overcome the shortcomings of it.
• It explains the individual or group behaviour and human
relations.
• It introduce the concept of informal organisation,
decentralisation and flat structure.
SYSTEMS THEORY
• It was proposed by Hungarian biologist, Ludung von Bertalanffy as
‘Foundation of general system theory’.
• It is based on open and inter-related system.
• A system can be perceived as composed of some components,
functions and processes. Thus, the organization consists of the
following three basic elements:
• Inputs- Equipments, natural resources and work of employees.
• Process- Communication and decision analysis.
• Outputs- Product and service.
