Fordism is a founding capitalistic approach to organizational communication management. From this framework, the classical theories of management (scientific management, bureaucratic theory, human relations theory, and human resource management) are all key to managing and maintaining Fordism at the organizational level; each of these theories reflects different efforts to construct and manage the Fordist worker.
