What is controlling?
Controlling is nothing but a management function, which is
closely Related to Planning, But the main difference that, it is
more prevalent than planning. Controlling involves the following
managerial activities:
- Minimize discrepancy: To minimize the gap between Actually
achievement and the standard goal set by the management,
Controlling plays a vital role.
- Monitoring performance: The management is responsible for a
good or bad performance of the Organisation. They should know that
motivated employees are the key to success. Therefore they have to
perform close monitoring over the performance of employees.
- Corrective decision: While controlling, Management should
evaluate for the correctness of various activities, They should
take corrective action for all the wrongdoings to flow the
performance towards planned goal.
- Encourage Teamwork: Good work brings good performance but to
achieve more than good, teamwork is something that is a must to
have for any Organisation. Management should ensure to build-up a
smooth workflow by building up a great team of motivated employees.
Teamwork is the small key behind any big story.
- Increase in Value: Value is what makes an organization
different from its competitors. Good management always adds value
by controlling the quality of their offerings to the consumers, to
stand out from their rivals.
Have you ever been controlled at work?
I and all of my coligures are always under in great controll and
supervision of our management. In fact, without controlling there
will be no work culture feft in any organisation.
Have you been orally warned or written up?
I generally not give the chance to arise the circumstances of a
written warning, but yes, Once I taken a gentle oral warning for
late arriving at the office for an unavoidable circumstance. I
realized that all employees will be less productive, without such
warnings. I also learned a great thing, that consistency should not
be compromised, and controlling is the key to be consistent and
productive at the workplace.
