Answer to Question 1

The scientific management approach focuses on handling employee problems first through four scientific principles: scientific design of each task, scientific worker selection, training and rewards for productivity, and division of both labor and responsibilities. The bureaucratic approach focuses on handling management problems first through clear division of labor, clear pyramidal chain of command with horizontal communication (Fayol's bridge), and small span of control (for a tall vs. flat structure).
