Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles a groundbreaking series of experiments conducted at the Hawthorne Works of the Western Electric Company in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Spanning several years and involving hundreds of employees, the research sought to understand the complex relationship between working conditions and employee efficiency. What began as a simple investigation into the impact of factors like lighting and rest breaks quickly evolved into a much deeper exploration of human behavior in the workplace. The author meticulously details the unexpected turns and challenges encountered throughout the research process, offering valuable insights for future studies of this nature. Through meticulous observation and in-depth interviews, the study delves into themes of worker attitudes, social dynamics within work groups, and the often overlooked influence of informal organization on productivity. By shedding light on these previously misunderstood aspects of the work environment, the book offers a new lens through which to view employee satisfaction and dissatisfaction. Ultimately, this book's enduring contribution lies in its profound understanding of the human element in industry. It underscores the importance of social connection, individual needs, and collaborative work environments in fostering not only efficiency but also a sense of belonging and purpose among employees. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
