The Principles of Scientific Management

Focusing on the theme of national efficiency, the book highlights the urgent need to address not only the conservation of material resources but also the optimization of human effort. It emphasizes that while the depletion of natural resources is evident, the inefficiencies in human actions remain largely overlooked. By advocating for a systematic approach to management, the author aims to enhance productivity and effectiveness, thereby ensuring a more sustainable future. This work aligns with the broader goals of improving national efficiency as articulated by President Roosevelt.
