Henri Fayol was a French mining engineer and author who is considered the father of modern management. He developed 14 principles of management in the early 20th century that are still relevant today. The principles include division of work, authority and responsibility, discipline, unity of command, unity of direction, subordination of individual interests, remuneration, centralization, scalar chain, order, equity, stability, initiative, and esprit de corps. Effective nursing management involves applying these principles to maximize quality of care, improve communication and satisfaction, and achieve organizational goals through efficient use of resources and supervision of staff. The roles and responsibilities of a nurse manager include developing objectives, assigning patients, supervising staff, coordinating activities, evaluating performance

Work should be divided among individuals and
groups to ensure that effort and attention are
focused on special portions of the task.

6. 02.Authority & Responsibility
The concepts of Authority and responsibility are closely related. Authority was defined by
Fayol as the right to give orders and the power to exact obedience. Responsibility involves
being accountable, and is therefore naturally associated with authority. Whoever assumes
authority also assumes responsibility

applied judiciously to encourage this common effort.

interests to the general interests

direction.
The interests of one person should not take priority over the interests of the organization as
a whole.

All Workers must be paid a fair wage for their services
08.Centralization
Fayol defined centralization as lowering the importance of the subordinate role.
Decentralization is increasing the importance. The degree to which centralization or
decentralization should be adopted depends on the specific organization in which the
manager is working.
Lower level managers/workers should always keep upper level managers informed of their
work activities.

11.Equity
10.Order
All employees should be treated as equally as possible.
This principle is concerned with systematic arrangement of men, machine, material etc.
There should be a specific place for every employee in an organization
