Synopsis

""The Psychology of Management"" is a seminal work by Lillian Moller Gilbreth, published in 1914. This book explores the role of the human mind in determining, teaching, and implementing methods of least waste in management. Gilbreth argues that the principles of psychology can be applied to management practices in order to increase efficiency and productivity. She provides examples of how different psychological factors, such as motivation, perception, and learning, can be used to improve workplace practices. Gilbreth also emphasizes the importance of scientific management and the use of data and analysis in decision-making. This book is a pioneering work in the field of industrial psychology and remains relevant to modern management practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Biographie de l'auteur

L.M. Gilbreth, Ph.D. (1878-1972) was an American psychologist and industrial engineer. She completed a dissertation in 1911 in an attempt to obtain a doctorate from the University of California, but because of what they called "noncompliance with residency requirements for doctoral candidates" she was not awarded the degree. That dissertation was published in 1914 as The Psychology of Management. She went on to write another dissertation at Brown University, and that time she met all the requirements and was awarded her doctorate.
