Abstract
To replace traditional approach, at the turn of the twentieth century, the first ever-serious effort was made by Frederick Taylor by putting forth scientific management theory. It brought a revolution by introducing scientific aspects of industrial operations and patterns. While Emphasising on profit maximisation scientific management, aimed at motivating employers and employees and at the same time, increasing production and lowering cost per unit production. However, it has been scrutinised and criticised Severally for treating workers as machines which, eventually, resulted in negative performance in the long run. This paper studies the principles, techniques, and methodologies of scientific management and its utility in the contemporary times
