	Henri Fayol
		Henri Fayol, a French engineer and director of mines, was little unknown outside France until the late 40s when Constance Storrs published her translation of Fayol's 1916 " Administration Industrielle et Generale ".
		Fayol's line was that one employee's interests or those of one group should not prevail over the organisation as a whole.
		Fayol's work - assumes a shared set of values by people in the organisation - a unitarism where the reasons for organisational activities and decisions are in some way neutral and reasonable.

		Fayol concentrated on the Managing Director (his term) and worked downward.

		Fayol was not primarily a theorist, but rather a successful senior manager who sought to bring order to his personal experiences.

	General Administrative Theorists (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Fayolism is the name for a school of thought named after Henri Fayol (1841-1925), a French business executive famous for turning companies around from the brink of bankruptcy, and there exists a Fayol Society which has collected 14 of his management principles.
		The works of Henri Fayol were not translated into English until the 1940s, so his impact on American management was delayed.

		We must also keep in mind that the beliefs of early management theorists, including Henri Fayol, about how organizations worked or should worked were a direct reflection of social values of that period.
		Henri Fayol, a French executive engineer and a Managing Director of a large French local mining firm, developed the first comprehensive theory of management, Administration Industrielle et Generale (published in France in 1916), was almost ignored in the United States until English translation, General and industrial Management, appeared in 1949.
		While Fayol and many Classical theorists believed that a subordinate should have only one superior to whom he or she is directly responsible, contemporary theorists view this principle is logical only when organizations are comparatively simple.
