POPULARITY
How did unelected “experts” with their unwavering devotion to “science” rise to such power in American life? More than a century ago, an engineer named Frederick W. Taylor inspired progressive activists with a new concept he called “scientific management.” Future Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis took Taylor's concept and married it with political power. Brandeis teamed up with President Woodrow Wilson and a powerful senator named Robert La Follette to give the nation an “expert” makeover that Americans were not asking for. This is the story of how a cult of expertise developed among progressives and how these “experts” took a sledgehammer to our constitutional system of government, with far-reaching consequences that still reverberate today.

Sponsors Jase Medical A century ago, we witnessed the dawn of the “expert class” in this country. The consolidation of power into a few hands was something the founders tried to avoid. But people like Woodrow Wilson brought it crashing back into our lives, in one of the most blatant efforts of all time to stamp out individualism and freedom. Being able to take your destiny in your own hands is something I believe in. And it's something that Jase Medical believes in, as well. They're a proud partner in bringing this together, and I'm happy to have them on board. They understand – the way you and I do – that you need to be able to make decisions for yourself and your family. They're providing some of the most vital life-saving medications – medications that the “experts” wouldn't want you to be in charge of. Medicines that, because of the “experts” in charge, might not be easy to get in the coming months and years. I encourage you to check out https://jasemedical.com today, and prepare yourself and your family. Relief Factor You know, the field of medicine didn't use to draw a distinction between itself and what we would call “holistic” remedies today…it was just the field of medicine. Some things worked better than others, that's all. But then, of course, came the experts. And they insisted things be done a certain way…which meant that a lot of good treatments for things that we all had taken, our grandparents had done that really did work, went by the wayside. Relief Factor doesn't work that way. Because the people who make it realize something the “experts” don't – fighting pain is almost always about helping your body heal itself with natural supplements that are actually effective. I know because I take Relief Factor every day. If you're suffering from pain, can I recommend that you give Relief Factor a try? Go to https://www.relieffactor.com today! PreBorn The “experts” in our society helped bring about some of the modern miracles we've experienced in technology, no doubt. But they also helped usher in modern horrors. At the dawn of the twentieth century, as mankind was raising its hackles and nations were slowly preparing to go to war with each other in what would be the bloodiest war in history (until its sequel) – while all of that was going on, the “experts” in the medical field… the people you could trust… were promoting eugenics. The systematic weeding out of undesirable human beings… because their lives and their rights just weren't that important. Because they stood in the way of progress. Tragically, the brainchild of that historic evil is embedded in our society to this day. It's practiced every time an expecting mother walks into a clinic and allows a doctor – an “expert” – to destroy her unborn child. Progress is progress, don't you know?

Wenn es um den Abschied von alten Managementüberzeugungen geht, darf die Taylorismus-Schelte nicht fehlen. Doch ist diese Kritik berechtigt? Nicht unbedingt am Werk von Frederick W. Taylor, sondern an der immer subtileren Zuspitzung des Ansatzes. Stefan Kaduk und Dirk Osmetz blicken auf die Wurzeln zurück und sorgen sich um die getarnte Rückkehr einer Denke, die schon als überwunden galt.

Desconozco si te gustan los coches. Si es así, quizá seas más de Ford o de Toyota. Dos grandes marcas. Aún si el mundo de los automóviles te da igual, es posible que tú también seas toyotista o fordista. Me explico. Introducción al juego: Taylorismo Hace ya bastantes años, apx en 1911, Frederick W. Taylor elaboró un sistema de organización racional del trabajo. Posteriormente, y haciendo un triste favor al nombre, se conoció este método como Taylorismo. ¿En qué consistía su sistema? Al taylorismo se le conoció también como «organización científica del trabajo». Esto suena mejor. La idea de Taylor era aplicar los principios básicos del método científico al trabajo industrial. Se dividía entre directivos y trabajadores, se simplificaban las tareas y se remuneraba al trabajador según su rendimiento. Para que todo funcionara correctamente, se dio especial importancia a los supervisores, que se aseguraban de que los trabajadores fueran super eficientes. Todo, absolutamente todo, se medía y se estudiaba para maximizar los beneficios. 📑 Seguir leyendo 👉 https://www.efectivida.es/blog/eres-toyotista-o-fordista/ 🌐 WEB: efectivida.es ✅ Curso C.A.R.: efectivida.es/car/ 🎁 CUPÓN 50%: PODCAST50
I vårt senaste podcastavsnitt pratar vi med forskaren Anna Rylander Eklund om två olika synsätt som påverkar hur vi arbetar i projekt och i våra organisationer idag. Annas inspirerande resonemang utgår från två tänkare som levde under samma period men som hade helt olika ansatser: Frederick W. Taylor och Mary Parker Follett.
In this episode, Sam and Dan take a deep dive into a fantastic listener question, “What happens in a scaling environment with the Scrum Master?” What happens when you have one Scrum Master with many teams or many teams and multiple Scrum Masters? With the Scrum Guide not explicitly providing guidance on this topic, Dan and Sam explore the realities of focusing on multiple teams as a Scrum Master, whether or not a Scrum Master can or should handle multiple teams, and real-world examples of scenarios they have seen play out with both. They also discuss the risks and challenges that come along with multiple Scrum Masters coordinating across many teams and share their advice on increasing communication and helping your teams (and organization) understand Scrum. Key Takeaways Can a Scrum Master handle multiple teams? With so much on your plate as a Scrum Master, it is ideal to only handle one team at a time (especially if they’re very early on in their Scrum journey; they’re going to need a lot of your attention and focus) It is possible to handle multiple teams but it is dependant on how far they are into their Scrum journey (if one of them is far along and another is newer, it is far easier to manage multiple) It doesn’t make sense to split a Scrum Master’s attention between multiple teams if they are all start-ups As a Scrum Master, you are already splitting your attention between your team and the organization (in helping them use Scrum effectively) — dividing your attention even further between teams can spread you too thin If you are acting as more of an Agile Coach with less focus on the organization, it may be possible to handle multiple teams An ideal scenario would be to have a Scrum Master master per team in the organization and have them coordinate and communicate across these teams Note: In order to be a great Scrum Master, you need to look beyond limiting your role to organizing meetings, enforcing timeboxes, and responding to the impediments people explicitly report (reference Michael James’ Scrum Master Checklist to see the full breadth of what you could be doing in your role as a Scrum Master [if you have the time and capacity]) Advice for multiple Scrum Masters coordinating across multiple teams: Have a Scrum Master Community of Practice — make sure that the Scrum Masters are meeting regularly to discuss what’s going on in their teams When a Community of Practice is successfully implemented, you can exchange new ideas which can really help the agility of the teams and the entire organization You can work together on the common challenges you are all facing and rally together to figure out solutions Your understanding of Scrum and your ability to help teams will grow exponentially A cautionary word about establishing a Community of Practice: you may not get outside ideas as easily which can develop a sense of “groupthink” Be sure to seek outside ideas — always ask: “What are we not doing? And what can we learn from the broader community?” (Try attending conferences, events, or webinars) Get outside of your organization’s four walls whether that be through podcasts, books, or other resources — always be open to grow The risks of Scrum Masters coordinating across too many teams: The teams may struggle to understand the need for Scrum itself (the “why” behind Scrum becomes lost when Scrum Masters cannot spend enough time with a single team) which leads to dysfunctional behavior Being commanded to do things for the sake of doing them rather than “We need to do Scrum to deliver well” leads teams to become disengaged Simply finding the time to do sprint planning together and coordinate the teams Closing thoughts and key takeaways: The Scrum Master is an invaluable part of the Scrum team — do not try to short change your teams in order to save a little money (i.e. by spreading them thin in managing multiple teams) The Scrum Master will help your team be effective and stay effective By having a Scrum Master focus on one team they can better help them integrate with the larger organization If you need to have multiple teams per Scrum Master, try to have some balance (in that not all of their teams are new or old) Mentioned in this Episode: Michael James’ Scrum Master Checklist The Scrum Guide Tampa Bay Scrum Masters Guild The Nexus Integration Team Agile Coaches’ Corner Ep. 126: “What is Agile?” Agile Coaches’ Corner Ep. 3: “Communities of Practice with Quincy Jordan” Frederick W.

Kapitalizm 2.0: Bilimsel yönetim ilkelerinin fabrikalara uygulanması ve verimlilik devrimi
A Lost Horizons Network Collaboration It's time once again for Real Nerd Hourz with our podrades from The Regrettable Century! And we decided to keep it chill this time and read a book together that is only 1000 pages. We join forces to kick off our new collaborative reading series on Eugene Macarraher's The Enchantments of Mammon: How Capitalism Became the Religion of Modernity. For part 3, Comrade Adam leads the discussion on advertising, the rise of the corporation, scientific management, imperialist eschatology, and we all get sick along the way at the sheer depravity of capitalism's development in the Gilded Age.

Frederick W. Taylor was a central figure in the development of management thought. Dr Susan Inglis looks at how Taylor gave credibility to the idea of managing more efficiently while paying workers higher wages.
