3. Administrative Management

A. SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT
a. Frederick Taylor focused on methods of increasing worker
productivity. He believes that workers were motivated primarily of
economic rewards, and that organizations should be characterized by a
distinct hierarchy of authority comprising specialized personnel.
If workers were taught the best procedures, with pay tied to
output, they would produce the maximum amount of work.
b. Frank and Lilian Gilberth a couple who engineered the
development of motion study as an engineering and management
technique. He (Frank) was much concerned in the relationship between
human beings and human effort.
Concept of Time and Motion Studies:
1. Breakdown each action into components;
2. Find better ways to perform it; and
3. Reorganize each action to be more efficient.
c. Henry Gantt formulated his Gantt Chart, a visual display chart
used for scheduling which is BASED ON TIME, rather than quantity,
volume and weight.
In a complex project, it can be made manageable by first
breaking it down into individual components in hierarchical
structure, known as the work breakdown structure, or the

d. Sun Tzu
MAX WEBBER believes that bureaucracy was a means of lessening
the cruelty, nepotism, and subjective managerial practices common in
the early stages of Industrial Revolution.
B. BUREAUCRATIC MANAGEMENT

REVIEW NOTES FOR CRIMINOLOGIST LICENSURE EXAMINATION

a. Max Webber believed that bureaucracy was the most rational

means of allowing people to attain private and social goals in a
capitalistic society; this approach however, reflects a highly
formalized and impersonal view of management.
The major criticism was employees within the bureaucracy
become little more than cogs in a machine without much
control over their lives.
Characteristics of Bureaucratic Organization
1. Division of labor based on specified sphere of competence;
2. Hierarchy of authority where its lower office is under the
control and supervision of higher one;
3. Specified sets of rules applied uniformly throughout the
organization;
4. Maintenance of interpersonal relationships because rational
decisions can only be made objectively and without emotions;
and
5. Selection and promotion based on competence, not on
irrelevant considerations.
8. Emphasizes broad administrative principles applicable to higher levels
within the organization.
a. Scientific Management
c. Administrative Management
b. Bureaucratic Management d. Neo-Classical Management
C. ADMINISTRATIVE MANAGEMENT
a. Henry Fayol one of the most influential pioneer of the Industrial
General Management. Fourteen (14) Principles of Efficient
Management was identified based on his works.
Fourteen (14) Principles of Efficient Management
1. Division of Work. Work specialization can increase efficiency
with the same amount of work.
2. Authority and Responsibility. Authority includes the right
to command and the power to require obedience; one cannot
have authority without responsibility.
3. Discipline. Discipline is necessary for an organization to
function effectively, however, the state of the disciplinary
process depends upon the quality of its leaders.
4. Unity of Command. Employee should orders from one
superior only.
5. Unity of Direction. There should be one manager and one
plan for a group of activities that have the same objective.
6. Subordination of Individual Interest to General
Interest. The interest of one employee or group of employees
should not take precedence over those of the organization as
a whole.

REVIEW NOTES FOR CRIMINOLOGIST LICENSURE EXAMINATION

7. Remuneration of Personnel. Compensation should be fair

to both the employee and employer.
8. Centralization. The proper amount of centralization depends
on the situation. The objective is to pursue the optimum
utilization of the capabilities of the personnel.
9. Scalar Chain. The hierarchy of authority is the order of ranks
from the highest to the lowest levels of the organization.
Besides, this vertical communication should also be
encouraged as long as the managers in the chain are kept
informed.
10. Order. Materials and human resources should be in the
right place at the right time; individuals should be in jobs and
positions that suit them.
11. Equity. Employees should be treated with kindness and
justice.
12. Stability of Personnel Tenure. An employee needs time
to adjust to a new job and reach a point of satisfactory
performance; high turnover should be avoided.
13. Initiative. The ability to conceive and execute a plan
(through initiative and freedom) should be encouraged and
developed throughout all levels of organization.
14. Esprit de Corps. Union; Unity is strength; Harmony and
teamwork are essential to effective organization.
b. Luther Gullick and Lyndall Urwick pioneers of The Science
of Administration. In this book, they have described the major
functions of the administration using the acronym PODSCRB
(Planning, Organizing, Directing, Staffing, Coordinating, Reporting and
Budgeting).
9. This management approach focused on the predicted patterns of behavior,
thus the occurrence of the human relations movement, emphasizing the
informal aspect of the organization.
a. Classical Approach
c. Behavioral Science Approach
b. Human Relations Approach
d. Contemporary Approach

If the classical approach emphasized the formal aspects of

organization ignoring the human aspects, human relations
approach focused on the predicted pattern of behavior, thus
occurrence of the human relations movement, emphasizing the
informal aspect of the organization.

HUMAN RELATIONS APPROACH has been influenced by the

Hawthorne Experiments which were carried out in Chicago from
the mid-1920s to the early 1940s, under the aegis of the Western
Electric Company, and in conjunction with the Harvard Business
School.

REVIEW NOTES FOR CRIMINOLOGIST LICENSURE EXAMINATION

The results of the Hawthorne Experiments contradicted the

traditional views of management emphasized by the classical
theorists and led to the behavioral approach emphasizing concern
for the workers.

10. What do you call the phenomenon where productivity increases

regardless of changes in working conditions when special attention is paid by
the management to its employees?
a. Stockholm Syndrome
c. Biorhythm
b. Hawthorne Effect
d. Mayonism
KEY CONTRIBUTORS IN HUMAN RELATIONS APPROACH
a. Elton Mayo (Principles of Mayonism)
1. Supervisors should not act as like supervisors (instead,
they should be friends or counselors to the workers)
2. Managers should not try to Micro-Manage (there should
be no overriding concern for production)
3. People should be periodically asked how they feel
about their work (and their supervisors)
4. Humanistic supervision plus morale equals productivity
(The Mayo Formula)
5. Humor and Sarcasm are good in the workplace (It is all
part of group dynamics)
6. Workers should be consulted before any changes (and
participate in change decision)
7. Employees who leave should be exit interviewed
(turnover should be kept to minimum)
b. Chester Barnard In his famous work, The Functions of the
Executive, he viewed the organization as a cooperative system
of individuals embodying the following three (3) essential elements:
1. Establishing and maintaining a system of communication;
2. Securing essential services from other members; and
3. Formulating organizational purposes and objectives.
Absence of any one of these elements would lead to the
disintegration of the organization.
Barnards THEORY OF AUTHORITY AND INCENTIVES
These two (2) theories of Barnard were founded in the context of
a Communication or Cooperative Systems grounded in the
following essential rules:
1. Channels of communication should be definite;
2. Everyone should know of the channels of
communications;
3. Everyone should have access to the formal channels of
communications;

REVIEW NOTES FOR CRIMINOLOGIST LICENSURE EXAMINATION

4. Lines of communications should be as short and as

direct as possible;
5. Competence of persons serving as communication
centers should be adequate;
6. Line of communication should not be interrupted
organization is functioning;
As for incentives, he proposed two (2) ways of convincing
subordinates to cooperate tangible incentives and
persuasion. He described four (4) general and four (4)
specific incentives.
Money and other material inducements;
Personal non-material opportunities for distinction;
Desirable physical conditions of work; and
Ideal benefactions, such as pride of workmanship, etc.
c. Mary Parker Follet stressed the interactions of management and
workers. She looks at management and leadership holistically,
presaging modern system approaches. Identifies leader as someone
who sees the whole rather than the particular.
She was one of the first to integrate the idea of the
organizational conflict into management theory, and is
considered as the Mother of Conflict Resolution.

foundation for testing and developing theories about human behavior in
organizations that can be used to guide and develop managerial policies and
practices.
a. Classical Approach
c. Behavioral Science Approach
b. Human Relations Approach
d. Contemporary Approach
CONTRIBUTORS OF BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE APPROACH
a. Abraham H. Maslow (Maslows Hierarchy of Needs Theory)
argued that behavior of an individual at a particular moment is usually
determined by his or her strongest needs.
He believes that there seems to be a hierarchy into which human
needs arrange themselves in the following manner:
Physiological
Safety
Love
Esteem, and
Self-actualization or Self-fulfillment
b. Douglas McGregor (Theory X and Y) In his book The Human
Side of Enterprise, he identified an approach of creating an
environment within which employees are motivated by via

REVIEW NOTES FOR CRIMINOLOGIST LICENSURE EXAMINATION

authoritative, direction and control or integration and self-control,

which he called Theory X and Theory Y, respectively.
