Ways to remember

We, by nature always come up with ways to remember things and increase our natural mental storage space. Shopping lists, telephone numbers, roads, theories and lessons are few of the everyday matters that demand our storage capacity. I tend to share ideas about how to remember important things. But it is best that we come up with these methods by ourselves as that would certainly be more effective. I read somewhere once that one way of improving memory is to imagine elaborate visuals for words. For example the word ice-cream can be very simply imagined or you can think of your favourite flavour with chocolate topping, honey, peaches and nuts... and huge really huge!

Management theories
Now I don’t know why in the world that we should remember these but here are some easy ways of recalling which theory belongs to which guy.

Fredrick Taylor and the scientific management approach
- I always think of the tailor in terms of measurement.

Max Weber and Bureaucracy
- not taking into account the pronunciation part of it, I think of weber as spider man or the one that spins around with red tape making many levels in the management hierarchy

Henri Fayoll and the Administrative Principles
- this one I leave for you to figure out

Elton Mayo and the behavioural approach
- Association of the H in the words Human relation and Hawthorne studies
- The word “Mayo” can be broken into “May you”. Does this remind us of something?

T Burns and G M Stalker and the organic and mechanistic organization
- for you to figure out
