  • Max Weber's bureaucracy theory made major contributions to our understanding of organizational life. This legal-rational approach to organizing was meant to guard against the "particularism" that Weber saw around him. It is sometimes called bureaucratic management theory known for its rationalization of organizations. This video looks at bureaucracy theory basics.

    ‘Vey-ber’ is the correct way to say this as he is German. However most of Europe wouldn’t pronounce their W’s as V’s as this is specific to the German language/accent.

    • @alexanderlyon
      @alexanderlyon Před 6 lety +2

      I've heard many people say what you've said but I've heard just as many educated people in the US say that it is acceptable to use the B sound in the US (even though many people in the US still say it V). Case in point, Germans pronounce the W in Volkswagen with a V sound but in the US we pronounce it B even though it is a German name. Weber is a very common name in the US. It clearly has German origins but we say it with the B sound 100% of the time when it is an American. All that to say, V is the correct, traditional way to say it but B is an acceptable pronunciation in the US. And, believe me, I looked into it for a long time before I said it. For many words, two pronunciations can both be correct even though one is preferred. Anyway, thanks for the comment. I'm sure people will be debating this for a long time in academia. I wish Weber was here to tell us. :-)

      Scientific management is still used today, more than ever really. It's used in most production-based organization, food, etc. However, knowledge-driven organizations like Google are not in the business of producing tangible products. So, it does not fit that situation as much.

    Hi, How does Weber’s theory of bureaucracy and its relevance to Public Sector Management?

    • @orgcomm
      @orgcomm  Před 7 lety +1

      Hi John. It depends on what types of mean by public sector but I'll do my best to answer. Most large organizations in the public sector still run today in a bureaucratic fashion. The public sector mirrors and extends the legal-rational system of government. In that way, they are managed very similar to traditional government organizations. Having said that, my area of expertise is organizational communication and does not focus much on the public sector. I look more so at private organizations. Not sure this answers your question but that's what I've got for you.

      Agreed. Most of the classical organizational studies crowd were functionalists.

    how can APA 6, reference this video and Bureaucracy and your video about Taylorism!

      I do not recommend using citing this video as a source. It would be better to use a journal article about Weber and Taylor. This video is just like a teacher's lecture on the topic and we don't typically cite teachers' lectures as a source.

    Amazing video! For the pronounciation of "Volkswagen", try to say it like "Folksvaagen", then you're in German again ^^
