His stated goal was the â€Å"maximum prosperity for the employer, coupled with the maximum prosperity for each employee,† through â€Å"a far more equal division of the responsibility between the management and the workmen.† Translation (lest the reader overestimate Taylor’s respect for workers’ potential The Management Century hbr.org Idea in Brief In the early years of the last century, â€Å"improving the practice of management† meant making it more scientific.
