Max Weber is the German theorist recognized for the management theory of Bureaucracy. Weber's beliefs were in stark contrast to the typical European organization that was based on a family‐type structure in which employees were loyal to an individual, not to the organization. Weber, however, believed efficiency is achieved through impersonal relations within a formal structure, competence should be the basis for hiring and promoting an employee, and decisions should be made in an orderly and rational way based on rules and regulations. Organizations were bureaucracies based on a hierarchy with clear superior‐subordinate communication and relations, based on positional authority, in which orders from the top were transmitted down through the organization via a clear chain of command.
