What were his assumptions about who does the work and what work is?

What is your stance?

Consider Callan’s (1922) position in the inaugural issue of Harvard Business Review. What were his assumptions about who does the work and what work is? At the writing of his editorial, US women had only had voting rights for two years. The gendered aspects of his writing are inescapable.
Consider Allen’s 2022 podcast. What are Al-Dhubaib’s assumptions about work and what work is? How are these similar to and different than Fayol’s 1916 assumptions about work and technology?
Explore the rest of the October 1922 issue. Choose one article that seems relevant today. Then search recent (no older than 6 months) issues of Harvard Business Review. What makes your juxtaposition of old and new ideas interesting within the context of Cunliffe’s (2021) suggestions about critical engagement with management theory?
Reminder:

When crafting the answers to these questions, please remember to integrate and cite the assigned materials as well as your own research from Harvard Business Review (both old and new). As you do, remember to both cite and reference them.

Be sure to make connections between the assigned materials and your ideas. Include a reference list at the end of your submission.

You don’t need to write a huge essay, but it should be at least 350-400 words long.  Your replies to at least two others should comment on new insights you gained in reading their essays, and how their ideas did or did not change your own viewpoint.

Try to respond to two learners with perspectives different from your own in order to demonstrate your understanding of other frameworks and perspectives
