Our very first episode aired on July 4, 2014 and was titled, “Declaring Independence from the Tyranny of Taylorism”. In honor of this milestone, Ron and Ed’s hard work, and the fact that this coming Friday is a holiday in the United States, we are running our very first episode again.
What is Taylorism?
On our premiere show, Ed and Ron tackle the ghost and gospel of efficiency, as made popular by Frederick Winslow Taylor, author of The Principles of Scientific Management in 1911.
