The Principles of Scientific Management - Reassessment after 100 Years in 2011


Interesting to note.
Scientific management was published in 1911.
Principles of Industrial Engineering by Going also was published in 1911


Have industrial engineering and scientific management competed?

Frederick Winslow Taylor: Reflections on the Relevance of  The Principles of Scientific Management 100 Years Later
Cristina M. Giannantonio, Amy E. Hurley-Hanson

This Special Issue focuses on the relevance of Taylor’s work to managerial practice in the 21st century. The aim of  this Special Issue is to encourage theoretical and empirical research on Taylor, The 
Principles of Scientific Management, and its implications for managerial practice in the 
21st century. 

Frederick W. Taylor, the father of Scientific Management, was an American mechanical engineer, efficiency expert, and management consultant. In 1911 he published his seminal work, The Principles of Scientific Management, in which he laid out the process of scientifically studying work to increase worker and organizational efficiency. The principles underlying his theory contributed to a wide array of  management practices during the 20th century including task specialization, assembly line production practices, job analysis, work design, incentive schemes, person-job fit, and production quotas and control.

"We hope that the ideas presented here will allow Management scholars to reflect on Taylor’s work in the next 100 years and we call for continued research on Frederick W. Taylor and The Principles of Scientific Management."
