In this essay I will argue that while it is clear that the concepts of Fayol have been largely superseded by modern descriptive views such as those of Mintzberg and Kotter, he laid out the foundations so to speak (remove this) that allowed modern thinkers to develop their theories in greater detail. This means that it isn’t such a matter of who is right, rather the models of roles and functions exhibited by Fayol and Mintzberg interlink and complement each other, and are in many senses just different, displayed by the fact Fayol’s model is prescriptive and Mintzberg’s descriptive. Henri Fayol in 1916 published ‘Administration Industrielle et Generale’ which set out the main “elements” of management (Gray, 1984 cited in Fells, 2000), these were to forecast and plan, organise, coordinate, command and control (Pugh and Hickson, 2003). He also outlines fourteen principles of management including discipline, authority and responsibility, equity and initiative (adapted from Fayol, 1949 cited in Brooks, 2009). These principles were based on the experience of Fayol as a Managing Director as well as positions in general management (Pugh and Hickson, 2003).

Moreover perfectionism explained as setting goals that are out of range and as a structure in which it causes the person to experience negative feelings as a consequence (Frost, Marten, Lahart & Rosenblate, 1990). Early conceptualizations of perfectionism suggested perfectionism to be a unidimensional construct (Burns, 1980). In contrast, recent views have stressed that perfectionism is multidimensional in nature (Terry- Short, Owens, Slade & Dewey, 1995). Recent research has shown that two major dimensions of perfectionism can be
One of the most common errors individual’s make is when attempting to make the distinction between correlation and causation. However, in scientific and psychological findings, distinguishing between these two terms is very important. Simply put, correlation means association or a measure of the extent to which two variables are related (McLeod, 2008). A correlation will identify the variables and looks for a relationship between them. There are two types of correlations: positive correlations and negative correlations.

Rationalization must be understood in relation to Weber’s broader concept of reason. The term s most often associated with social action and structures emphasizing demystification, exact calculation, prediction and quantification concerning the means of action. This meaning is reflected in Weber’s useof “instrumentally rational action (1968:71-4), “technical rationality” (1968:63-8) “rational economic action” (1968:71-4), “ formal rationality (1968:851-6). Value rational action (1968:24-6) and “substantive rationality” (1968:85-6) which involve reflection about ultimate ends. Weber’s concept of rationalization refers to the “disenchantment” of the world-the displacement of “magical elements of thought”by ideas which “gain in systematic coherence and naturalistic consistency”.
One of the interesting aspects of their work was the manner in which they report the outcomes of the DA procedure. Poehner (2008) demonstrated the difference between the DA and non-dynamic assessment (NDA) from two different points of view: ontological and epistemological which consider the integration of teaching and assessing through intervention to enhance the abilities which are being assessed. As Poehner suggested the DA and NDA are concerned with the procedures of administration rather than an assessment tool. He also admitted that any assessment tool is possible to be applied in dynamic and non-dynamic fashion. Furthermore Poehner (2008) recognized three different paramount
