The paper critically analyses the theory of Scientific Management by Taylor providing its overview and discussing the argument of Buchanan and Huczynski (2005) that Taylor's method results in low job satisfaction and high absenteeism in the organisation, which causes the managers to look for alternative managerial and motivational practices. The paper uses interpretive and phenomenological research approach. A literature review is offered on the basis of qualitative secondary data obtained through published and peer reviewed sources. The paper concludes that although Taylorism is still vastly followed in many organisations, there is a paradigm shift towards a more flexible and dynamic organisation design in the 21st century, with new management and motivation techniques.
