Mayo’s findings once again revolutionized the role of managers in organizations. The work performed by individuals has to satisfy their “personal, subjective” social needs as well as the company’s productive requirements. He and other proponents of this movement therefore called for managers to “accept a new role” in their relationship with workers; develop a new concept of authority; and help foster a new social order in the workplace (George, 1968). In practice managers were encouraged to consult workers about change, take note of their views, and to show concern for their physical and mental health (Wren, 2005, p. 293).
