Blog assignment #6

Today I'm going to talk about Frederick Taylor and his contributions to the administration. On the second semester of my first year of college, I had a subject called Administration Theory, and one of the most important people was this character. He was also the first theorist that I had to study to understand better how the public administration has changed since its beginnings.

He was an economist and mechanic engineer from the United States, promoter of the scientific organization of the work and considered to be the father of the cientific administration.

His main points were to scientifically determine the standard work, and to create a mental revolution and a functional worker through different concepts intuited early from his 1903 work called Shop Management.

The taylorism was expanded through the US and the world since late XIX century, supported by the industrial businessmen, who saw in this tide the possibility to increase their control over the work process, elevating the productivity and having the chance to hire non qualified workers (unorganized immigrants) in manual tasks that were simpler, more mechanical and more repetitive.

Now I will introduce the principles referred in his work: time studies, movement studies, tools standardization, sales planification department, etc.
