Henry Eilbirt

Business History Review, 1959, vol. 33, issue 3, 345-364

Abstract: Personnel management as we know it today grew out of welfare work, on the one hand, and Scientific Management on the other. It came to embrace added functions and concepts, the most important of which was that idealism and realism were compatible in dealing efficiently with human beings.
