Taylor, Frederick William

Taylor, Frederick William
(1856-1915)
The founder of scientific management , who developed controversial theories of work-study and industrial efficiency, in the conflict-ridden American steel industry at the end of the nineteenth century. Taylor achieved national renown but his hostility to trade-union controls on effort, and his technicism directed at financial interests, provoked both political and industrial opposition.
