Mangement Assignment
How Do You Know If You're Doing a Good Job?
The Controlling function of Management helps us understand if we are meeting our objectives. It's our job as Manager to be constantly evaluating "how things are going", and to make adjustments if it's necessary. We learn in Chapter16 that there is a process associated with the Controlling function. Additionally, we learn about metrics, and the sources of information.
Instructions:

This works best of you record yourself, make sure it is correct and accurate and that you have done a good job, and then Upload Media. In your video, be sure to answer the following questions:
1. Describe the Control Process for your organization.
2. What metrics are being tracked? In other words, what is being measured?
3. What area(s) of control is this?
4. What level of control is utilized? In other words, who is doing the monitoring?
