management team and supervise the junior
management team.

organizational growth and due to limited
capacity of senior management to oversee the

Private – Public Sector Cycle

 In the 1940 all the way to the early 1970s


most governments became pro labor and
socialist leaning
 Therefore there was major emphasis in public

sector through nationalization of the private


sector.
 Most services and businesses were

nationalized and private sector grew weak.

46
Private – Public Cycle
 In the 1980s and in the post cold war era,
there was major global wave of privatization

 This wave of privatization was aimed at


increasing;

 efficiency,
 profitability and

Henri Fayol
 H. Fayol wrote a book entitled, “General and
Industrial Administration” published in 1916.

 This book became a model for most of the


managerial administration and followed in the
20th century.

 In this book Fayol outlined what became known


as the traditional framework of management
which consisted mainly five key points;

80

Commanding direction to employees

Monitoring work progress to



ensure precise execution of plan


5. Controlling and implementation of set
processes

84
Traditional Framework of Managment
 These five parts of the management framework
are interdependent and interconnected.

 Achieving one while ignoring the others is likely


to be counterproductive.

 Fayol’s work lasted for over a century and laid


the foundation of most of the routine
managerial process that is now seen the many
organizations.

85
Luther Gullick

 Gullick further developed Fayol’s work into a


newer form and called it POSDCORB

 This redeveloped work of Fayol’s theory has


gained tremendous traction with many
management thinkers.
