Correct answer: (B) L. D. White — L. D. White is not associated with evolving the principles of organisation, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★L. D. White is not associated with evolving the principles of organisation, so that is the answer.
★Henry Fayol, L. F. Urwick and Luther Gulick belong to the classical principles school.
★They sought universal, value-free principles to guide management in any setting.
★Fayol gave fourteen principles of management and the five functions of administration.
★Gulick and Urwick framed POSDCORB and the principles of organisation.
★L. D. White wrote the first textbook of public administration but did not formulate these organisational principles.
★Hence White is the odd one out among the four.
