hey son, how was your school today ? is everything good ?
yes dad, everything good. I learn about new history in motion and time study. It is about Henry Laurence Gantt.
That's interesting. Can you tell me about it ?
Henry Laurence Gantt was a mechanical engineer and management consultant from the United States who is most recognized for his contributions to the creation of scientific management.
Do you know why was Gantt a war hero ?
Gantt felt that industrial efficiency could only be achieved by applying scientific analysis to all aspects of work, and that management advances resulted from reducing chance and accidents.
Henry Gantt's legacy to project management is :1. The Gantt Chart - It generates a graphic timetable for job planning and control, as well as tracking progress toward project milestones.2. Industrial efficiency - It can only be achieved by applying scientific analysis to all areas of the ongoing project.
Not only that, his legacy also :3. The Task and Bonus System - He tied managers' bonuses to how well they educated their staff how to enhance their performance.4. The social responsibility of social business - Businesses, he argued, have a responsibility to the well-being of the society in which they operate.
Wow, I'm amazed you can memorized all of them ! Make sure you study hard to get an A in Work Measurement subject !
