DEFINITIONS OF MANAGEMENT
2. Persuasive
The manager has a strong and centralized controlling business
decisions like the autocratic type of management. What differs is that
in a persuasive type, the manager convenes with his colleagues before
he decides. Employees are motivated not anymore by rewards and
punishment but by persuasive techniques.
TYPES OF MANAGEMENT
3. Consultative
In a consultative style, leaders and workers have two-way
communication. Team members share their opinion in solving issues
of the company. Consequently, the practice is costly, slow in decision
making and important changes are delayed.
TYPES OF MANAGEMENT
4. Participative
There is a distribution of authority and power in participative
management. The company’s project is a shared responsibility and
each member has self-direction.
THEORIES OF MANAGEMENT
A. Scientific Management Theory
This management theory makes use of the step-by-step, scientific
methods for finding the single best way for doing a job. Frederick W.
Taylor, the Father of Scientific Management, is the proponent of this
theory.
Taylor’s Scientific Management Principles are as follows:
1. Develop a science for each element of an individual’s work to replace
the old rule of thumb method.
2. Scientifically select then train, teach and develop the workers.
3. Heartily cooperate with the workers to ensure that all work is done
following the principles of the science that has been developed; and
4. Divide work and responsibility almost equally between management
and workers.
