Abstract:
This study took a critical look into a critique of Taylor's testimony on scientific management as presented before congressmen. The rule of thumb was applied in the field of management which warranted Taylor to come up with scientific management in an attempt to address the problem that was associated with the rule of thumb. The scientific management in alignment with Taylor's testimony, was mostly concern about mental revolution and comprehensive behavioural modification of the workforce in order to ensure efficiency and effectiveness in operations. Taylor's effort to create fresh ways of reasoning and acting was actually his most noteworthy input to the increasing science of management. It was concluded that a holistic mental revolution of the management on how things should be carried out as advocated by Taylor before the congressmen, remain a key factor towards proper management of contemporary organization.
