Taylorism still works for the SME's in their developing stage. Scientific management for poor and new born organizations.

Measurement is Essential for Control
Taylor was a very practical person. His emphasis on measurement rather than just experience is still valid and applicable in all fields.
There can be no control without measurement. The way to control is where it got misused but control per se is not a bad word.
