Elton Mayo

The Humanist Temper

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Still the subject of vigorous debate, Elton Mayos ideas spanned several disciplines - psychology, sociology, philosophy, and business management. Mayo developed the field of industrial psychology by applying the results of scientific research to the problems of work in order to improve the life of industrial workers and managers and to encourage collaboration between administrators and their subordinates. Trahairs biography traces the origins of Mayos ideas in order to help clarify aspects of the debate.
