Download or read book Works Management Classic Reprint written by William Duane Ennis and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Works Management In a former book (Linseed Oil: An Industrial Manual), the present writer has undertaken to discuss some of the conditions of efficiency in a special industry. It seems to be the current belief now that there exists an art of management without regard to special application; that there are underlying principles of efficiency germane to any business. Participation in this belief has suggested the present volume. Every American is concerned that the United States may attain and maintain industrial supremacy. We no longer hold with Carlyle and Ruskin that machinery is bad. Machinery is a blessing to man. It has permitted him to substitute head work for hand work and has made him free. We can have no industrial supremacy as we go on now. We are the most wasteful nation on earth. We burn up money in human lives, wasted by preventable disease. We recklessly consume our natural resources of land, forest and mine. Nowhere do we waste more thoroughly or more rapidly than in our factories; nowhere are we more childish than in some of our "business methods." The remedy is not this or that widely heralded "system." Industrial incapacity is not a specific disease needing an antidote: it is a characteristic of our frame, which we must survive and outgrow. No one of us is individually greatly to blame; we are all greatly to blame as a people, because we do not do the best we can. Profits are no index to efficiency. A man may be rich, yet a spendthrift. The growth of a philosophy of works management has been an American growth. This philosophy is one that comes home to every individual, no matter how far he be removed (as he may think) from industrial affairs. Every man should know something of the new ideals of industrial management. Superficial knowledge may have little available value, but there are things so important that we must all know something about them, even if that something have only the force of a suggestion.

Book excerpt: "Lab Dynamics is a book about the challenges to doing science and dealing with the individuals involved, including oneself. The authors, a scientist and a psychotherapist, draw on principles of group and behavioral psychology but speak to scientists in their own language about their own experiences. They offer in-depth, practical advice, real-life examples, and exercises tailored to scientific and technical workplaces on topics as diverse as conflict resolution, negotiation, dealing with supervision, working with competing peers, and making the transition from academia to industry." "This is a uniquely valuable contribution to the scientific literature, on a subject of direct importance to lab heads, postdocs, and students. It is also required reading for senior staff concerned about improving efficiency and effectiveness in academic and industrial research."--BOOK JACKET

Download or read book The Management and the Worker Classic Reprint written by George F. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Management and the Worker This book and its two companion volumes are designed to present a complete picture of the common problems that arise in handling human relations in any business, large or small. The method of treatment throughout is the one that seems logically suggested by the nature of the problem itself. Theory has been the approach in very many earlier volumes treating the same question, but the relations between employers and employees are today so practical, the points ordinarily at issue between them have been defined so often and so completely, and so much experience has accumulated in handling the problems, that the only satisfactory treatment today seems to be an analysis of methods actually being used and proving successful. This book is designed primarily for those who face the problems of employee management. Business today is a huge laboratory in which numerous intensely interesting industrial experiments are being tried. Some of these experiments are still in too early a stage to determine how well they may succeed, or whether they will succeed at all. Only in two or three instances have these been touched on in the present volume. There are many other plans, however, that have been thoroughly tried and their success proved by results. The bulk of this volume and its companion titles are made up of descriptions of the methods used in these concerns.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theory and Practice of Scientific Management AN element of risk attaches to any effort to appraise a movement while that movement is still in its earlier and more enthusiastic stages, especially when the appraisal is made by one who is (however modestly) a participant in it. The attempt is justified only by the accuracy with which facts are presented and by the justice and fairness of the inferences and conclusions drawn. In this book I have tried to give only facts which can be verified and to make infer emees with all due conservatism. The result is Offered for what it may be worth.

Download or read book Modern Management Applied to Construction Classic Reprint written by Daniel J. Hauer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Management Applied to Construction Andrew Carnegie is credited with saying that if he had to lose his plants or his organization, he would prefer to lose the former; for they could be replaced more quickly than his organization. This is especially true of contracting. The building Of an organization for this work means years of effort. Contractors just starting in the' business quickly realize this; the Older men in the field know that hundred per cent efficiency in any contracting organization is seldom reached. The principles of modern management should leave nothing for chance to decide. Therefore, the successful contractor Of today must break away from Old inefficient methods and practise modern ways. TO do this calls for real leadership. In mechanical lines much has been done to try out this new leadership - to adopt scientific management and establish new standards for a greater efficiency in manufacturing. It has been thought that these principles, so successfully applied in the manufacturing field, are not applicable to engineering and architectural construction. This idea, however, has been proven erroneous by the successful work Of those pioneers in the contracting field. The author's experience as a construction economist covering the past decade has taught him that scientific management is applicable to construction - he has applied and is applying the principles of such management with a fair degree Of success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scientific Management and Labor The book here presented is based upon an investigation of scientific management in its relations to labor, made by the writer for the United States Commission on Industrial Relations. The investigation involved a study of scientific management shops designated, in the main, by Mr. Frederick W. Taylor, Mr. H. L. Gantt and Mr. Harrington Emerson, leaders of the movement. In this shop study, the investigator was assisted by Mr. Robert G. Valentine, Industrial Counselor, appointed by the Commission to represent employing management, and Mr. John P. Frey, Editor of the "International Molders' Journal," similarly appointed to represent labor. Both Mr. Valentine and Mr. Frey were in close touch with the writer during the course of the investigation and the preparation of the report to the Commission, and both attached their signatures to that document as well as to the conclusions which were presented with it. This monograph has also received their unqualified approval. The discussion which follows is for the most part an attempt to test Mr. Taylor's claims respecting scientific management in its relations to labor, the claims of Mr. Gantt and Mr. Emerson being considered only in so far as they differ from those of Mr. Taylor. Justification for this mode of procedure is clearly set forth in the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.
