The founder of Human Relation School of Thought was .................
Answer: D
The founder of the Human Relations school was Elton Mayo.
Mayo led the Hawthorne studies at the Western Electric Company (1924-1932), which showed that workers' productivity depended on attention, morale, group norms and social relationships rather than on physical conditions and pay alone. This shifted management thought away from Taylor's scientific management towards the human relations approach.
Erik Erikson is known for psychosocial stages of development, Sigmund Freud for psychoanalysis, and MacIver and Page for their sociology textbook Society; none founded the human relations school.
