Individual Assignment

Management Models

Individually outline answers to the following questions:

Organizations have elements of scientific management, neoscientific management, human relations or human resources that predominate. After reading the textbook and PowerPoint presentation, describe the organization (e.g. school) where you are employed or one where you were previously employed and determine which management models it most closely fits. Why do you think the organizational structure fits one of these models?

In your opinion, is the existing model of management in your school or work environment the most effective for the organization? If so, why? If it is not a desirable organizational pattern, what would you suggest as an alternative form of management?

You will be asked to share this information with your group. We are all encouraged to feel free to openly and honestly discuss issues within their work environment and to not disclose classmates' writings with individuals outside of our class.
