Individuals in organizations, McGregor argued, are naturally inclined to work, to
seek responsibility, to cooperate, to be productive, and to take pride in their work.
Organizations, however, are structured and managed on the assumption that employees
dislike work and if given the chance will be lazy and will shirk, and because
of this, directions and production quotas are necessary. By the mid-s, the
humanistic or organizational humanism perspective in public administration was
emerging, based largely on the work of Barnard and McGregor.
In the late s, generally associated with what came to be known as the New
Public Administration, a group of theorists resistant to what they believed were
exaggerated claims to scientific validity in public administration met at Syracuse
University’s Minnowbrook Conference Center in upstate New York. They were
concerned with what they judged to be the misuse of data and facts to justify continuation
of the war in Vietnam, and they believed that behavioral and objective
public administration was relevant neither to pressing public issues such as war,
poverty, and racism, nor to the organization and management of public institutions.
From the Minnowbrook Conference and many subsequent gatherings
emerged a set of concepts that challenged the orthodoxy of the day. Among the
concepts and assumptions that emerged from Minnowbrook and the so-called
New Public Administration that are now core ideas in postmodern public administration
are these:
