Padres de la administración: Frederick Taylor

How about friends in this program company let's talk about the parents of the administration and we'll talk about Frederick Taylor which is known for his great contributions to administrative theory specifically in the scientific method or in scientific administration in subtitution of empirical work so today the company we will talk then about the father of scientific administration Frederick Taylor Frederick Taylor was born in the year 1856 in Pennsylvania USA and dies in the year 1915 at the age of 59 he was an engineer industrialist and economist from the USA and contributed great knowledge in the subtitution and contributed great knowledge in the subtitution of the empirical method by the method scientist for which is known as the father of scientific administration for which is known for the father of scientific administration for the publication of his book in 1911 as the principles of the administration scientific Taylor since her adolescence began to losing his eyesight and his complexion weak could not participate in sport or any activity that will need a lot strength that marked him for life so that was dedicated to study the effort physical movements the places of i work to get information and increase efficiency in any activity both in sport and in the production Frederick Taylor unlike others focused on the tools and the work methods that is to say it was focused in the operational part of the organizations to increase their efficiency and effectiveness unlike others as in case of Henri Fayol that focused all his theory on the part managerial for Taylor man is by nature lazy and therefore performs slowly his work making the enterpreneur who is giving his best for this reason the times and the movements of these workers to study them and find the best combination of muscular movements to raise production and also give uniformity to processes what is not happened in the old empirical system for this it was necessary to divide between who think the best ways to do the work and who have the physical strengths to excute it to the first ones were given the responsibility to train the seconds until get them the highest performance that his body could also give speech of the specialization of tasks then of this way the worker earns more time and dexterity doing the same every day Taylor explained the stages to put in operation your new organization scientific work first find 10 - 15 skilled workers at word analyze 2 define the exact series of elementary movements of each of the workers carries out to execute the analyzed work as well as the tools and materials used 3 to finish with a stopwatch the time necessary to perform each one of these movements and choose the mode simplest execution 4 delete all the wrong movements conceived the slow and the useless and finally after having deleted thus all the useless movements gather in a sequence the most movements rapid one of the great contributions of Frederick Taylor Was given in the steel company where he observed that each worker on average daily I was transporting near 12. 5 tons of steel ingots and considered that it could be increased up to 48 tons per day through the scientific method for it Frederick Taylor chose a worker with the proper physical conditions a strong person with ambition to love earn much more in that time then a worker earned $1. 15 a day and Taylor offered this person to win 1.

85 everything that was said to him was done this person was a well-known Dutchman like Schmidt this person was told that he had to lift the ingots by bending or flexing the knees will also be he said he had to lift them with the straight legs was also told to be was going to measure time or speed in that he did the movements as well as rest periods then to select the right person in the right place and with a system of incentives with the useful tools to be able to do the work then achieved the goal of increase the number of ingots to 48 tons daily other experiments of Taylor hit the shovels he observed that all workers used the same size of shovel regardless of the weight of the material so Taylor considered that the size of the shovel should depend on the weight of the material that is rising like this determined that the optinum size at lift by shovel should be 21 pounds also based on it determined to the extent that material is collected lightweight with a shovel set in size large and if the material is heavy it should to be picked up with a much more shovel litle the great contributions of Frederick Taylor are contained in your book the principles of administration scientific published in the year 1911 of which are the four fundamental principles of scientific administration of which we can observe the first principle of planning which consists of the substitution of the empirical method for the scientific method is to say the replacement work improvised work according to the criterion of the worker by much more scientific methods and much more studied the second principle is the principle of preparation wich consists of scientifically select worker according to certain skills needed to play very well work well also be able provide you with the tools and the machinery needed to and be able to do the work according to the objetives raised the third principle we can observe that it is the control principle which consists of control to certify that the work is being done according to the regulations and finally the principle of the execution which consists of properly distribute the functions and the responsibilities of each worker to carry out the work of form disciplined then we could summarize all the contributions of Frederick Taylor as the father of the administration scientific in five important points in the first place he contributed to the creation of the foundation of the rational organization of work in second place the administration scientits replacing the method empirical in third place the selection adequate and scientific human resource fourth the introduction of incentive systems to increase motivation and productivity of workers and in last place for jobs standardized from there the jobs became mechanics and repetitive well friends these were the great contributions from Frederick Taylor considered as the father of the scientific administration its principles currently they are of great importance in the workshops or in the works operational one of the great critics that this author received is that considered the human being as a machine is to say that with a system of adequate incentive I was going to perform better subsequently to his theories then others emerged a much more focus human within them is the theory for example Elton Mayor we're going to see much later so remember subscribe to the Calderon social chanel and this is me company music. . .
