The Human Factor In Works Management (1912) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781437376388)

The Human Factor in Works Management, written by James Hartness and originally published in 1912, is a seminal work in the field of industrial management. In this book, Hartness argues that the success of any industrial enterprise is ultimately dependent on the people who work within it. He contends that the traditional approach to management, which focuses solely on maximizing efficiency and productivity through the use of machines and technology, is incomplete and ultimately ineffective.Hartness proposes a new approach to management that takes into account the human factor in the workplace. He argues that managers must recognize the unique needs and motivations of their employees and work to create a supportive and empowering work environment that fosters creativity, innovation, and collaboration. Hartness also emphasizes the importance of training and education, both for managers and workers, and provides practical advice on how to implement these principles in the workplace.Throughout the book, Hartness draws on his own experiences as a successful industrialist and inventor, as well as insights from other experts in the field of management and psychology. He also provides numerous case studies and examples of successful management practices from a variety of industries.Despite being over a century old, The Human Factor in Works Management remains a relevant and insightful work on the importance of human resources in the workplace. It is essential reading for anyone interested in industrial management, organizational behavior, or the history of business and industry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
