The Place and Role of Control in Contemporary Management

Abstract

The paper discusses the changing role of control in the processes of management over the period of the last decades. It has been proven that the broadly understood control (including strategic and operational controls) is on the one hand a process that corrects the current and future actions, and on the other it inspires to search for proper ways of functioning in the future. It also warns of any threats. Today in the time of strategic management and situational management the second, broader, meaning of control becomes a necessity.
