About the Book

The Mother of Modern Management How one woman's revolutionary ideas made our world more efficient, one task at a time. Long before the era of self-help gurus and productivity hacks, there was Lillian Gilbreth. A brilliant psychologist and engineer, she was a pioneering force in the male-dominated world of scientific management, and the matriarch of a sprawling family of twelve children. Her life was a testament to the power of a keen mind and an unwavering commitment to efficiency, not just in the factory, but in the home. Together with her husband, Frank, she transformed workplaces by analyzing motion and eliminating waste. But after his untimely death, it was Lillian who carried on their groundbreaking work, expanding it to the domestic sphere. She saw the kitchen as a laboratory, and her insights gave us the organized refrigerator, the foot-pedal trash can, and countless other innovations that we take for granted today. This book is the definitive story of Lillian Gilbreth, the trailblazing woman behind the legend. It's a compelling narrative of love, loss, and intellectual triumph that reveals how one extraordinary woman applied the principles of engineering to every facet of her life, proving that the best way to get things done is not by working harder, but by working smarter.
