Managing Engineers and Scientists: Some New Perspectives

Thomas J. Allen and Ralph Katz

Chapter Chapter 10 in Human Resource Management in International Firms, 1990, pp 191-199 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Until very recently, management theorists paid scant attention to problems that are unique to the managing of engineers and scientists. Most research in management has been directed toward understanding the needs and behavior of blue collar and clerical employees. To the extent that engineers and scientists were even considered, it was assumed that principles developed through research on these other employees would apply to engineers and scientists as well.
