Key Thinkers in Administration and Management

• Henry Fayol: A French mining engineer and director of a coal-mining company, often called the 'Father of Modern Management Theory'. He is renowned for his 14 Principles of Administration, which provide a framework for organizational management. His book, 'Administration Industrielle et Générale' (General and Industrial Management), published in 1916, is a seminal work in management thought.
• Luther Gulick: An American political scientist and management consultant. He, along with Lyndall Urwick, developed the acronym POSDCORB in their influential paper 'Papers on the Science of Administration' (1937). POSDCORB represents the functions of management: Planning, Organizing, Staffing, Directing, Coordinating, Reporting, and Budgeting. This framework was highly influential in public administration.
• David Easton: A Canadian-American political scientist known for his work on political theory and systems analysis. He is credited with developing the Basic Premises of Behaviouralism in political science. His influential work, 'A Framework for Political Analysis' (1965), posits that politics can be understood as the 'authoritative allocation of values for a society,' which is a key concept in behavioral political science.
• Chris Argyris: An American organizational psychologist and theorist. He is a prominent figure in the study of organizational behavior and human psychology in management. His major contributions include the Fusion Process Theory, which seeks to explain how the needs of the individual and the demands of the organization can be integrated. His work emphasizes the importance of individual growth and development within organizations, exploring concepts like 'single-loop' and 'double-loop' learning.
