American mechanical engineer and management consultant Henry Gantt remains best known for his work in the development of scientific management, his most popular legacy to the field being the Gantt Chart. Accepted as a commonplace project management tool today, the Gantt Chart was an innovation of worldwide importance in the 1920s.

In his later career as an industrial consultant and following the invention of the Gantt chart, he designed the 'task and bonus' system of wage payment and additional measurement methods worker efficiency and productivity.
