For this assignment, you should select an organization such as a department store, restaurant, hospital, police department, or any other business, and analyze the control system(s) that is used. Your objective is to identify all the different ways in which managers monitor and evaluate the performance of the organization and employees.

Which output performance standards (e.g.: financial measures, organizational goals) do managers use most often to evaluate performance at each level? How important is behavior control in this organization? For example, how much of managers’ time is spent directly supervising employees? How formalized is the organization structure? Do employees receive an operational manual instructing them on how to perform their jobs? What recommendation would you provide to managers to improve this specific company’s output and behavioral controls?
