What can Navrang cube teach us

One fine day Dr Mandi brought with him a colourful cube which resembled a regular rubik's cube in it shape but was differed from it in its colours and one more difference was that it was detachable.At first i wan't sure what it was and what it was for but i was excited and knew it going to be fun. Then Prof Mandi told that the cube was called a Navrang cube and posed a challenge to our class. He asked us to arrange the cube in such a way that all 9 colours fall on all the 6 faces of the cube.

1. Solve it in a ramdom manner.Try to solve it on a trial and error basis with any plan or prior analysis.

1. The other way it to solve it methodologically with a proper plan and prior analysis

All of us accepted the challenge and tried to solve but failed.We struggled for about an hour but couldnot solve it.Then Prof Mandi took the cube from us and solved it in less than 2 minutes.We were amazed that how could he solve it such a short duration.We got our answer as the lecture progressed.We failed because our method for solving it was not correct.We did not have any plan nor did we know the process of solving it.We were quite random in our approach.We didn't any prior analysis before trying to attempt to solve the puzzle.But when Prof Mandi started solving the cube he was very much organized and followed a particular method of solving it as consequence of which he solved it in less than 2 min.

Learnings from this exercise were that there are two ways of solving a problem

It doesn't Einstein to guess which way is a better choice.

He then told us about Frederick Taylor’s theory of scientific management.There are 4 principals of scientific management which are as follows:-

Taylor's four principles are as follows:

1.   Replace working by "rule of thumb," or simple habit and common sense, and instead use the scientific method to study work and determine the most efficient way to perform specific tasks.

2.   Rather than simply assign workers to just any job, match workers to their jobs based on capability and motivation, and train them to work at maximum efficiency.

3.   Monitor worker performance, and provide instructions and supervision to ensure that they're using the most efficient ways of working.

4.   Allocate the work between managers and workers so that the managers spend their time planning and training, allowing the workers to perform their tasks efficiently.

      In the same way in an organizational structure different positions and their responsibilities are
well defined.Every organization has an objective and all its employees work to achieve it.Every organization has a specific way of working and all its employees are allocated specific tasks that are to be performed by them and the organization also has specified methodology according to which they work.
