that focuses on the ideal form of


organization.

Max Weber was a German intellectual


whose life and work were paralleled to
those of Taylor and Fayol. He believed
that manager using proper organizational
structures will achieve productivity.
Weber defined that bureaucracy could be
an ideal intentionally rational and very
efficient form of organization founded on
principles of logic, order and legitimate
authority. It is a system that relies on
rules and regulations, hierarchy, division
of labor and procedures. He also believed
that technical competence should be
emphasized
and
that
performance
evaluations should be made entirely on
the basis of merit.
Weber believed that all bureaucracies
have the following characteristics:
(1) A well-defined hierarchy
(2) Division of labor and specialization
(3) Rules and regulations
(4) Impersonal relationships between
managers and employees
(5) Competence
(6) Records
