Correct Answer: Emphasis on individual initiative


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Emphasis on individual initiative.

Scientific management primarily focuses on the systematic analysis and optimization of work processes to improve efficiency and productivity. While individual initiative can be important in an organizational context, it is not a primary feature of scientific management. Scientific management places more emphasis on the application of scientific methods, systematic planning and control, and worker training to enhance productivity and efficiency.
