Explain five differences and/or similarities between "Human Relations Theory" and "Scientific Management"?
HRT is not an alternative to scientific management; it is an extension because they both aim for a way to control output and efficiency. HRT addresses the failures of SM, and provides solutions to problems caused by SM such as sabotage, poor quality, high staff turnovers, etc...Both aim for organizational control, SM is overt and HRT is covert form of organization control, HRT is about helping the workers rather than exploiting them. HRT addresses workers strengths and weaknesses as a whole person compared to SM.
