Tiivistelmä: | IN a 1977 publication Alfred Chandler singled out the Springfield Armory as the site where single-unit management was pioneered in the United States, crediting Superintendent Roswell Lee (1815-1833) with establishing a first "managerial" approach to work discipline and labour accounting. However, as economic breakthrough came only in 1841/2, it has since been argued that Lee's role has been overestimated. The evidence reinforces the case for viewing the invention of modern business and managerialism as primarily a disciplinary breakthrough. |
