ssible to disentangle the
reasons for it. Nor would it be profitable to attempt to do so here.
In considering teaching under Scientific Management we shall show
the influence of the appreciation of teaching,--and may deduce the
lacks from its non-appreciation, from that discussion.

UNDER TRANSITORY SYSTEM TEACHING BECOMES MORE IMPORTANT.--Under
Transitory Management the importance of teaching becomes at once
more apparent. This, both by providing for the teaching of foremen
and journeymen as well as apprentices, and by the providing of
written systems of instructions as to best practice. The worker has
access to all the sources of information of Traditional Management,
and has, besides these, in effect, unsystematically derived
standards to direct him.

SYSTEMS MAKE INSTRUCTION ALWAYS AVAILABLE.--The use of written
systems enables every worker to receive instruction at any time, to
feel free to ask it, and to follow it without feeling in any way
humiliated.

The result of the teaching of these systems is a decided
improvement in methods. If the written systems are used exclusively
as a source of teaching, except for the indefinite teachers of the
Traditional Management, the improvement becomes definitely
proportioned to the time which the man spends upon the studying and
to the amount of receptive power which he naturally has.

INCENTIVES TO CONFORM TO SYSTEM.--The worker has incentives to
follow the systems--

1. In that he is required to render reasons in writing for
permanent filing, for every disobedience of system.
2. That, as soon as work is placed on the bonus basis, the
first bonus that is given is for doing work in accordance
with the prescribed method.

Even before the bonus is paid, the worker will not vary for any
slight reasons, if he positively knows at the time that he must
account for so doing, and that he will be considered to have
"stacked his judgment" against that of the manager. Being called to
account for deviations gives the man a feeling of responsibility for
his act, and also makes him feel his close relationship with the
managers.

NO SET TIME FOR USING SYSTEMS.--There is, under this type of
management, no set time for the study of the systems.

SYSTEMS INELASTIC.--Being written, these systems have all the
disadvantages of anything that is written. That is to say, they
require considerable adaptability on the part of the man
