Weberian Bureaucracy- Micromanaging- Task-Oriented Presented by: Brittany Holsinger Max Weber believed the most efficient way to run an organization was as a bureaucracy. A Weberian Bureaucracy is an organization where human activity is organized and a systematic process is in place. Hierarchies are necessary to maintain order. A bureaucratic organization is very impersonal, lacking all humanistic qualities. Micromanaging- is a management style in which a manager closely observes and controls their subordinates. Managers micromanage to make sure tasks are completed in a precise manner. Like a Weberian Bureaucracy, micromanaging also has a negative connotation because of its sole focus on task and goals, and disregard of humanistic qualities. Task-oriented- is a managerial approach that focuses on tasks that need to be completed in order to achieve specific goals. Like a bureaucracy and micromanaging the sole focus is on completion of task to meet an end goal. Again, task-oriented mangers lack a personable approach. Intersections- All three are structural ways to operate an organization. They’re all managerial and transactional. All are impersonal and lack humanistic qualities. They’re all task oriented structures. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
