Criticism of Management Process School
Universal Approach does not holds true intodays complex environment. Eg:Manufacturing and service industry
No significant contribution after Henri Fayol,rest of the thinkers repeated the same thing indifferent words.
It more or less disregards the human element,this view is countered by Behaviour School ofthought

Not applicable under the conditions of high
unemployment
The process approach is too static, but the
organization functions under dynamicconditions
Does not take into account the relevant
economic, technological, psychological &social aspects though it accepts that thesefactors have an important role.
