Describe a management style increasingly being adopted by businesses and evaluate how effective business is in managing change?

can someone give help or ans plz.

As the businesses progress towards the modern age, they are slowly adopting a behavioural style of management over the traditional style of scientific-classical management theory. Along with the behavioural theory of management, political management theory and contigency theory of management were brought about to deal with the increasingly changing society's need, ethics, moral systems and complexity.

Behavioural theory of management theory came about in late 20th century by Harvard University Professor Elton Mayo. This theory of management suggests that workers are not simply motivated by their economic needs. This theory successfully considers the social life of employees, referring to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs in that aspect. This management theory strongly belives in the notion of an empowerment of employees, team-work and effective communication system within the business. In order to do that, the overall business structure is "flattened" whereby the tall structure of chain of command is reduced with larger span of control. In doing so, the business reduces the problems related to the complex communication structure and the workers are more regarded as independent workers.

I can put few more stuffs in but I will let you add your own stuff as it will be better for your own study. I hope that helped.

ok i just realised something with your answer Namu. and it has confused me lol

The question says:
Describe a management style increasingly being adopted by businesses and evaluate how effective business is in managing change?

Now you say behavioural management.
I just came to look in my notes and i c there are two similar things.

Management theories and
management styles.

Now in my notes it says behavioural is a theory, along with classical - scientific theory, , political management theory and contigency theory of management.

The question says Style
my notes say that management styles are those like
-Autocratic
-Bureacratic
-custodial
-supportive
-collegial
-democratic

now to get to my question
Did u just misread the question or are my notes wrong?

O yea if u r wondering y i asked this q if i have notes on it, it is coz i only have around 4 lines on each so i need more info the have a good answer for the question.

Thank you

Okay for the confusion. I should have made it clear.

Yes, I was talking about management theory. However, I was going to relate that to the style as well like this:

Classicical-scientific -> autocratic
Behavioural -> participative
Political -> democratic
Contigency -> varies.
