Scientific Management is a method that focuses on improving work efficiency by using scientific principles. It involves studying tasks, training workers, and using standardized tools to save time and increase productivity. Developed by Frederick Winslow Taylor, it transformed how industries and factories operate worldwide.
Frederick Winslow Taylor, also known as F.W. Taylor, is called the Father of Scientific Management. His ideas changed how industries managed their workers, focusing on improving efficiency and eliminating waste.
Taylor noticed that workers were often inefficient. He believed managers should focus on getting employees to work better together. By studying workflows scientifically, Taylor aimed to create a more productive workplace.
Taylor introduced five key principles to make work more efficient:
Taylor worked in the steel industry and saw that inefficiency led to wasted time and resources. He realized that applying scientific methods to management could solve this problem. His ideas were based on observing and analyzing tasks to find the best ways to perform them.
The term ‘Scientific Management’ was first used in 1910 by Louis Brandeis, who recognized Taylor’s contributions to improving industrial processes. Taylor’s system became a foundation for modern management practices.
