...scientific management and human relation approaches still applicable to organization of the 21st century? Full name: Trần Võ Khánh Linh Student ID: 1301BF5024 Class: K52-BFB Lecturer: Mr. Trần Quốc Trung Submission date: July 20, 2015 | Introduction Management can have the most remarkable effects on organizations. Therefore, management has become an essential element of the organization. From the past, managers had to figure out the ways to manage different workers’ skills, workplace conditions, history background or even their emotions. Thus, the development of the method in order to carry out that crucial part of the managing job is required urgently. Throughout history, there have been various approaches of management theories authored by experts like Frederick W. Taylor, Elton Mayo, Peter Drucker... to basically give managers a guideline of how to control human labor. In fact, a number of management strategies can be observed with the passing of time, and two important ones that shall be mentioned here are Scientific Management - which was published by Frederick W. Taylor, and the Human Relations approach of Elton Mayo. Both theories are not hard to recognize within the modern day workplace, and these methods of working seem so commonplace and so logical to a citizen of the modern world - the 21st century - a century of innovation and sustainable development. The purpose of this essay is to analyse the extent to which Taylor’s Scientific Management and Mayo’s Human Relation...

...empowerment. The findings in this research suggest that communication and information-flow, incentives, knowledge and skill and autonomy among hotel service-employees may have a direct and strong impact on the empowerment of hotel service employees. These four conditions accounted for significant variation in the levels of employee empowerment in four star hotels in Jordan. Levels of empowerment seem to further impact the level of employee job satisfaction indicating a significant association. Implications for future research and for management practice are discussed. Introduction In a competitive environment in which organizations must be faster, leaner, provide better service quality, be more efficient, and more profitable, an empowered and proactive service worker is thought to be essential (Bowen and Lawer, 1992; Fulford and Enz, 1995; Bowen and Lawler, 1995). However, delegation of authority for a long period of time in the past, dominated the management field. In fact, this view changed into the “empowerment” concept as mentioned by Kocel (1998). It covers the participation and delegation of authority along with the motivation of the employees. Managers began to prefer a style, which liberates the creative and innovative “energies” and potentials of employees while benefiting 333...

As business process differs from organization to organization, different organization fill up different types of employee needs. So the process to build the employee pool and finally making the best choice from candidates differs a lot. The report is presenting a portfolio of five different types of organizations, which manifest the customized process suitable for each organization.

So recruitment and selection follow the required business process of different organizations.

...Covenant university ota Nigeria ABSTRACT A major factor affecting Nigeria’s economical progress is power. And this has been a major discuss in the country for a long time. A reliable and sustainable energy source is greatly desired to power the nation’s economy and this need cannot be overemphasized, due to the epileptic power supply to the national grid, it has become absolutely important to explore other cheap sources of power to meet our urban and rural energy need.
