This theory shows the relationship between the level of freedom that the manager chooses to give to his team and level of authority used by the manager. It addresses the problem of how modern managers can be democratic in their relationship with subordinates and at the same time maintain the authority control in organizations for which they are responsible.

Controls and the Control Process
Learning Objectives
After Studying This Chapter, Students Should Be Able To
· Understand the elements of control, measurement tools, and corrective steps
· Differentiate among the types of controls utilized within an organization
· Employ control strategies for effective management
· Identify which control processes are effective in an operational setting
· Describe an integrated planning process
Chapter Summary
Chapter 7 focuses on maintaining control by becoming adept at utilizing various control techniques and processes.
Components of the Control Process
There are four basic components of the control process:
1. Planning: Sets the directions and allocates resources.
2. Organizing: Brings people and material resources together in working combinations.
3. Leading: Inspires people to best utilize these resources.
4. Controlling: Checks that the right things happen, in the right way, and at the right time.
Objectives and Standards
· Objectives provide the performance targets.
· Output standards measure results in terms of performance quantity, quality, cost, or time.
· Input standards measure effort in terms of the amount of work expended in task performance.
Measurement Tools
Managers are able to not only adopt measurement tools by which success can be determined, but they also can use historical comparison (historical information), relative comparison (comparing to performances of others), or engineering comparison (comparing to scientific standards as a means of evaluating performance).
Corrective Action
The last step in the control process is to take any action necessary to correct or improve future performance. Management by exception can be used to direct action on problems requiring more urgent attention.
Effective Controls
The best managers, by contrast, are proactive and positive in applying the control process to full advantage. Effective controls in organizations share the following characteristics:
· Controls are understandable: They support decision making by presenting data in understandable terms; they do not involve complex reports and hard-to-understand statistics.
· Controls encourage self-control: They allow for mutual trust, good communication and participation among everyone involved.
· Controls are timely and exception-oriented: They report deviations quickly, lending insight into why a performance gap exists and what you can do to correct it.
· Controls are positive in nature: They emphasize their contribution to development, change, and systems improvement; they deemphasize their role in penalties and reprimands.
· Controls are fair and objective: They are considered impartial and accurate by everyone; they are respected for one fundamental purpose—performance enhancement.
· Controls are flexible: They leave room for individual judgment and can be modified to fit new circumstances as they arise.
Types of Control

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
