Explanation:

To begin with, the name of "Scientific Management" refers to the theory created by Frederick Taylor that focus on the study of the work environment around the years of the industrilization process back then. Therefore that this concept is quite ancient in terms that only looks for that the worker can do and how can he do it faster and more efficiently. A major importance of this study was the use of measuring the time of every worker to see how they were going. So, it is understandable that this process is criticized by many managers of today because it does not have in mind the social context of the workers and only sees them as machine without personal goals outside the work.
