GROUP PRESENTATION
INTRODUCTION
In hierarchical organization
Employers and employees may
both benefit as it helps guide a
company's path. However, an
organization's hierarchical
culture occasionally has the
potential to be overly rigid,
which can disrupt innovation
and creative thinking and
ultimately disrupt the success
of the business.
A well-considered explanation
for natural world observations
that has been developed
through the scientific method
and synthesizes numerous
facts and hypotheses is called
a theory.
• Frederick Taylor (1911) Scientific
Management theory.
• Max Weber (1947) bureaucratic
management theory
 ORGANIZATION
ORGANIZATION CHARACTERISTICS OF MOST SA SCHOOLS

THREE LEVELS COMPRISE THE SYSTEM

1.BASIC EDUCATION TRAINING
2. ADVANCED EDUCATION TRAINING
3. HIGHER EDUCATION TRAINING

THE PROCEDURE COVERS 12 GRADES IN TOTAL AND IS REQUIRED UP UNTIL GRADE 9. IN PRIMARY SCHOOL, IS
WHERE LITERACY AND NUMERACY ARE ESTABLISHED FOR THE FIRST SIX YEARS OF EDUCATION
WHY ARE OUR SCHOOLS ORGANIZED HIERARCHICALLY

CLEAR AUTHORITY STRUCTURE : COMMAND DIVISION OF LABOUR : A HIERARCHICAL SUPERVISION AND ACCOUNTABILITY: RESOURCES ALLOCATION : HELPS IN
AND ESTABLISHES CLEAR LINES OF STRUCTURE ALLOWS FOR SPECIALIZED ENSURES SUPERVISION AT VARIOUS LEVELS, EFFICIENT ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES IN
AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITY. THIS ROLES AND EXPERTISE. DIFFERENT PROMOTING ACCOUNTABILITY WITHIN THE SCHOOL.
ENSURES THAT DECISIONS CAN BE MADE POSITIONS WITHIN THE HIERARCHY HAVE ORGANISATION
EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY. SPECIFIC JOB DESCRIPTIONS AND
RESPONSIBILITIES, ENSURING THAT EACH
INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTES TO THE OVERALL
FUNCTIONING OF THE SCHOOL.
WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO TO CHANGE OUR ORGANIZATIONS INTO
MORE APPROPRIATE ORGANIZATIONS

Empower Encourage Redesign

Empower leadership at all Encourage student voice Redesign decision-making

levels : distribute leadership
responsibilities throughout
the organization.
and involvement : create
avenues for learners to
effectively participate in
decision-making activities.
processes : move away from
top-down decision-making
and involve various
stakeholders in decision-
making processes.
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FREDERICK TAYLOR AND MAX
WEBERR
Frederick Taylor
Focuses on the scientific study of work
methods to improve productivity and efficiency
Emphasizes the use of time motion studies to
identify the most efficient way to perform tasks
Max Weber
Focuses on the concept of rational legal
authority and the division of labor
Emphasizes the importance of hierarchy, rules
and impersonal relationships within an
organization
CONTINUES
TAYLOR
• ADVOCATES FOR A CLOSE COORPERATION
BETWEEN MANAGEMENT AND WORKERS TO
ENSURE THAT TASKS ARE IN PERFORMED IN
THE BEST POSSIBLE WAY.
WEBER
• ADVOCATES FOR A CLEAR CHAIN OF
COMMAND AND STANDARDIZED
PROCEDURES TO ACHIEVE ORGANIZATIONAL
EFFICIENCY.
SIMILARITIES BETWEEN FREDERICK TAYLOR AND MAX
WEBER THEORIES

• BOTH TAYLOR AND WEBER ADVOCATE A SYSTEM BASED ON STANDARDIZATION PROCEDURES AND A
CLEAR CHAIN OF COMMAND, AND THEY BOTH STRESSED EFFICIENCY BUT WEBER ALSO POINTED OUT THE
DANGERS A TRUE BUREAUCRACY COULD FACE

• BOTH BUREAUCRATIC AND SCIENTIFIC MODELS ARE COMMON IN THE MANUFACTURING AND INDUSTRIAL
SPACE , WHERE OUTPUT IS CALCULATED AND MONITORED, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AND HUMAN
RELATIONS MODELS ARE FAR MORE COMMON IN ACCOUNTING FIRMS , TECH AND STARTUPS AND IN
SMALL BUSINESS
IN ORDER FOR SCHOOLS IN SA TO BE IN SYNCHRONIZATION WITH
THE CHANGING NATURE OF WORK, THEY WOULD:
NEED TO ADAPT TO NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND
TEACHING METHODS THAT ARE RELEVANT TO
TODAY’S WORKFORCE.
ADDITIONALLY, SCHOOLS COULD COLLABORATE
WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES AND ORGANIZATIONS TO
OFFER INTERNSHIPS AND JOB SHADOWING
OPPORTUNITIES, GIVING STUDENTS REAL-WORLD
EXPERIENCE AND HELPING THEM MAKE INFORMED
DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR FUTURE CAREERS.
THIS COULD INCLUDE INCORPORATING DIGITAL
LITERACY AND CODING SKILLS INTO THE
CURRICULUM, PROVIDING STUDENTS WITH
OPPORTUNITIES FOR HANDS-ON LEARNING
EXPERIANCES, AND PROMOTING CRITICAL
THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS.
OVERALL, A SCHOOL THAT IS SYNC WITH THE
CHANGING NATURE OF WORK WOULD PRIORITIES
PREPARING STUDENTS FOR THE DEMANDS OF THE
MODERN WORKPLACE AND EQUIPPPING THEM
WITH THE SKILLS THEY NEED TO SUCCEED IN A
RAPIDLY EVOLVING JOB MARKET.
