Mayo vs Taylor |
Both had the same goal - collaboration and cooperation in industry.

|
Follett |
Basis of her thinking was the " whole man" and relations bw whole men within group. The group principle - bring out individual differences and integrate them into a single whole . Conflict confronting - voluntary submission of one side, struggle and victory of one over another, compromise, integration. Collective responsibility lies in group responsibility, employees involved ad partners in shaping work policies. Principle of integrative unity - finding solution that satisfies all parties. Coaction instead of consent and coercion. Law of situation - necessity of action in accord with the unique requirements of situation. (Taylor's obedience determined by study rather than rule of thumb) Circular response - cont process based on the opportunity for parties to influence each other through open interaction. Control is immposible to achieve without unity and cooperation in a given situation. Mgrs control interrelationship not people. Fact control rather than man control. Leadership should be based on reciprocal influence of leader on followers. No followers but people working with them. |

Research failure to provide for human coop in formal org. Survival of org. Is a maintenance of an equilibrium of complex character in cont fluctuating environment of physical, biological and social elements Difference bw effectiveness and efficiency - difference bw personal motives and Org motives. A formal system of coop required an objective if coop successful and objective obtained, the system is effective. Ccop efficiency is based on individual efficiency. The degree which individual motives were satisfied. All systems have 3 elements - willingness to coop - a common objectives - members able to communicate An economy of incentives - offering objective incentives (material, nonmaterial, associational) and changing subjective attitudes through persuasion. Informal group functions -Means of communication - further cohesiveness among members - protect members' integrity Authority is the character of comm. 2 aspects: subjective (personal accepting of comm as being auhority) accepted by virtue. Auhority accepted when : People understand comm They believe comm is consistent with purpose Comm is compatible with their personal interest " zone of indifference " set of comm indiv would rarely challenge.
