The Principles of Scientific Management by Fredrick Winslow Taylor, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This brief essay, by Frederick Winslow Taylor, the founder of scientific management has served for over fifty years as a primer for administrators and for students of managerial techniques. Although scientific management was developed primarily as a system for increasing productivity in industry, its principles have been applied to all kinds of large-scale enterprises, including operations within departments and agencies of the federal government. It is in this volume that the author gives the theory of scientific management its clearest airing.
