About This Coin
This medallion was struck to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Hawthorne Studies, a pioneer investigation into man and his work.
Artist/designer Kenneth Niimi's sculpture, depicting an emancipated worker is pictured on the medallion face. The Nimi original is on display in the Hawthorne Studies Room at Western Electric Company's Hawthorne Works, Cicero, Illinois.
The inscription on the reverse side is drawn from the preface to
"Management and the Worker," a textbook account of the historic experiment and co-authored by
Fritz Rothlisberger and Bill Dickson.
The words are those of Dr. Elton
Mayo of Harvard, a member of the University-Western Electric team which helped guide the original Hawthorne Studies.
