In terms to bring development in each and every person is essential to bring the greatest
efficiency and prosperity within enterprise. Thus, it will be defined in below presented manner as
are:
Science, not rule of thumb- To enhance organizational efficiency the rule of Thumb
method can be substituted by the methods developed by scientific analysis of work. The rule of
thumb means decision must be taken by managers as per their personal judgments. This is the
principle that must be followed by the Clearabee as it is concerned with the selecting the best
way of performing a job from employees through application of scientific analysis and not by the
intuition or hit and trail methods. Under this, it can be stated that work given to any employee

with aim to enhance the profitability within the entity. Therefore, it can be stated that mental
revolution requires the complete change in the outlook of both management and workers within

togetherness between the workers and management. It is effective technique as it is useful in
3

terms to develop the attitude among the employees so that all things will be carried out in much

prevail among the managers and workers within enterprise. Thus, HR of Clearabee must
understand the worth of workers and they must be considered as important part of management
who are allowed to take part in decision making process of management. In this, it can be said
that workers must be treated as the internal part of enterprise and all crucial decision are must be
taken after due consultation with workers. In this term, it can be said that management should
always works as to guide, encourage and helps the workers. Thus, it can be stated that there must
be proper division of work and responsibility between the two.

have the use of scientific approach. To attain the efficiency it is essential to select the right
candidates and for this employees must be scientifically selected. This is the term that is helpful
in order to attain efficiency and prosperity for the both organization and employees. Henceforth,
