16.1 Why is control such an important managerial function
Controlling is a management function that allows planned outcomes from all stages of a given organization. Controlling allows an organization to have a precise measure of the progress of attaining specific job objectives and goals that are set by the organization. Without the functionality of controlling, organizations may lack proper mapping on the progress of their goals and might miss their goals and their deadlines altogether. Controlling allows the management of an organization to detect any deviations the organization may be making from the set the course of attaining their goals. From these deviations, controlling comes as a measure that allows the management to map out the corrective measures to set their goals back on track (Merchant 1982).
