Match the thinker (List I) with the contribution (List II). List I: (a) Henri Fayol (b) Max Weber (c) Mary Parker Follett (d) Chester Barnard. List II: (1) Ideal bureaucracy (2) Fourteen principles of management (3) Organisation as a cooperative system (4) Law of the situation and constructive conflict resolution.

The correct matching is Fayol with fourteen principles, Weber with ideal bureaucracy, Follett with the law of the situation and constructive conflict resolution, and Barnard with the organisation as a cooperative system. That gives a-2, b-1, c-4, d-3.
