Theory X Software, Theory Y Software, Theory Z Software, McGregor, Ouchi (Strategic Analysis, Management):
Douglas McGregor, an American social psychologist, proposed his famous Theory X and Theory Y models in his book `The Human Side Of Enterprise` (1960).
McGregor sees Theory Y as the preferable model and management method, however he felt Theory Y was difficult to use in large-scale operations.
In 1981, William Ouchi came up with a variant that combined American and Japanese management practices together to form Theory Z, having the following characteristics: long-term employment - collective decision making - individual responsibility - slow evaluation & promotion - implicit, informal control with explicit, formalized measures - moderately specialized career paths - and a holistic concern for the employee, including family.
