The video is about Frederick Taylor’s Scientific Management Theory, also known as Taylorism. At the start of the video, the narrator discussed a little background about Frederick Taylor and how he came up with the scientific management theory. Frederick Taylor was a mechanical engineer and management consultant. During the time when factories were emerging everywhere and standardized ways did not yet exist, he saw the need to address this problem and wanted to make organizations more standardized, efficient, and productive by studying the work process of factories and organizations closely, which led to him inventing the scientific management approach. Aside from that, the video also talked about how scientific management works and some components included in scientific management. In the most basic sense, scientific management applies science to work. This means that scientific management works by carefully studying and using the scientific method to analyze the most efficient production process, especially at the micro level, to speed up work or increase productivity. Taylor did not like to promote unproven and inefficient practices, so he wanted to break away from the common sense “rules of thumb” of the worker’s own self-styled ways. He continuously experimented with each work process until he found the most optimal way to do that, indicating that the standardized processes he made were backed up with empirical data. Also included in his scientific management is the importance of division of labor and a clear hierarchical chain of command structure. In addition, the video also talked about both good and bad outcomes of scientific management or Taylorism. I chose this approach because I believe that to have a productive working process in an organization, the most optimal and efficient work practices must be followed and observed. By following the scientific management approach, we know that our practice or work process is the most efficient since empirical data back this. However, while I like the scientific approach, I do not condone the bad outcomes brought by the approach and would try my best to mitigate, if not eliminate, the drawbacks of Taylorism.
