Answer to Question #315228 in English for TUMI

Question

QUESTION 2 Taylor and Weber's scientific management system suggests that management should do all the thinking; they should set the goals, plan and supervise. It goes on to suggest that the workers should NOT think at all; they should just do the tasks required of them. Many theorists argued that the aim of Taylor and Weber, namely increased efficiency, would not be met if managers did not consider how their workers felt. Substantiate this statement with a practical example of a principal who imposes a certain decision on teachers and does not consider their feelings & paint a scenario that prove that teachers can never just teach without thinking about or carrying out other issues related to teaching and learning. [50]

Answer 1

It is true that efficiency or organizational performance would not be achieved if managers did not consider what workers feel. The principal who imposes a certain decision on teachers and does not consider their feelings and paint a scenario that prove that teachers can never just teach without thinking about or carrying out other issues related to teaching and learning was true. For teachers to be effective, they have to incorporate other things such as students mentality, wellbeing, as well as the environment in which they are teaching. The principal has a responsibility to ensure that teachers are in the best moods to teach well for better delivery to students.
