Evolution of OB - correct answer ✔1. Scientific management: 4 principles

Classical Management - correct answer ✔- Division of labor: give each

efficiency.

,- Authority: managers have the god given right to give orders. If people do not
respect the authority of the manager, there will be anarchy.
- Unity of command: each person reports to one boss. Otherwise there could
be confusion.
- Unity of Direction: businesses are broken into departments. People who are
contributing to the same general area should be put together. About expertise,
people are looking at the same goals.
- Centralization: efficient organizations have key decisions made at the top by
the CEO or the vice presidents.
- Formal rules and regulations: Max Weber, highly efficient organizations have
clarity in how to do anything within the company. Example: to apply for a
promotion there are certain forms to fill out and certain people that must

- Worker Alienation: workers feeling disconnected from their work. They did
not care about their work, just the money.

turnover. They hired researchers from Harvard called the Hawthorne team,

divide into 2 groups, control and experimental. Whenever they changed
lighting (up and down), there was an increase in worker productivity. Also,
both groups went up in productivity not just experimental. There were some
kind of psychological effects in the minds of the workers. Factory wanted to
know what was going on, they sent researchers back in and interviewed the

, workers one on one. Workers felt that they were being observed, evaluated,
wanted healthy competition, etc.

X: top down communication, controlling, micro managing. Thought employees
were undisciplined, unmotivated, inferior.
Y: Thought employees were trustworthy, motivated, hard working, creative,
