Who among the following is a member of a utilitarian organization: a) Angela, who works as a lawyer at a prestigious law firm an
d earns $60,000 annually b) Shaun, who is in prison for homicide and is forbidden from moving freely without a security guard c) Caleb, who is a member of a parent-teacher association that aims to promote better education d) Ritu, who is a member of a nonprofit organization that works toward eradicating poverty
Of the options given, the most likely member of a utilitarian organization is<u> a. </u><u>Angela</u><u>, who works as a </u><u>lawyer </u><u>at a </u><u>prestigious law firm </u><u>and </u><u>earns $60,000 annually.</u>
A utilitarian organization is one where:
Employees receive some sort of compensation for their work
Employees are usually contracted to a company to provide a certain service
Angela is receiving a compensation of $60,000 annually and is a lawyer which means that they are probably contracted to the law firm.
We can therefore conclude that Angela is working for a utilitarian organization based on the fact that there is compensation and contract.
The management theory used by Henry in this case is scientific management, which can be understood as an administrative model created by Taylor.
The main objective of scientific management is to make work more efficient using less resources and efforts, that is, making work more flexible by rationalizing work and implementing scientific techniques and training employees so that there is efficiency and effectiveness in organizational processes, with the lowest cost, time and continuous improvement.
