Scope and Contents

000603104_AT_0005_1 is a recording of a class in the Advanced Management Program in the Executive Education Department. At the beginning of the recording the professor notes that the class has been studying morale and management, specifically mentioning previous case studies such as the Marshall Company Case Study where the class focused on organization, division of labor, and allocation of authority. The professor also mentions this class's main theme is about how to work with people while also getting things done. Today’s lecture is focused on coming to conclusions about what discipline looks like and what should be done when company rules are broken. Other topics discussed include what and how discipline should be administered, rules and protocols put in place for safety, if men should be fired when the rules are breached, and how rules should be enforced. The same case study is discussed in recording 000603104_AT_0005_2.
