Scientific Management Theory, developed by Frederick W. Taylor, is one of the earliest and most influential approaches to improving productivity and efficiency in organizations. The theory emphasizes the use of scientific methods to analyze and standardize workflows, select and train workers systematically, and foster close cooperation between management and labor. Its core idea is that work can be studied and optimized through observation, measurement, and experimentation to find the "one best way" to perform each task. Though criticized for treating workers like machines and neglecting human factors, it laid the foundation for modern operations management, lean systems, and industrial engineering practices.
