The Principles of Scientific Management (1911) is a monograph published by Frederick Winslow Taylor where he laid out his views on principles of scientific management, or industrial era organization and decision theory. Taylor was an American manufacturing manager, mechanical engineer, and then a management consultant in his later years. The term scientific management refers to coordinating the enterprise for everyone's benefit including increased wages for laborers[1] although the approach is "directly antagonistic to the old idea that each workman can best regulate his own way of doing the work."[2] His approach is also often referred to as Taylor's Principles, or Taylorism.
