  6. What is Management Control? • Management Control is the connection between the business and corporate structure. • If the corporate office cannot adequately control its independent businesses, it will never be able to create value. • Therefore, Management Control is needed to maintain control over delegated decision making.

  7. Centralization - Decentralization • Delegation and control • Continuum used to provide balance • One company can utilize both structures • Accuracy became a concern due to many variables • Performance measures and rewards • Rethinking led to three types of Management Controls

  8. Three Types of Mgmt Controls • Outcome Control (Andrew) • Behavior Control (Brad) • Clan Control (Rob) But how do companies pick which “control” works best for them?

  9. Choosing Management Controls • Choosing a corporate management control approach…. -centralized vs. decentralized -organization system of processes -driven by corporate strategy

  10. Outcome Control • Utilizes delegated decision making • More emphasis placed on results • Determining corporate success • Established industries • Divisional independence

  11. Behavior Control • Executed in more complex companies • Focuses on behavior not results • Monitoring managers’: -actions -decisions -performance • Considers finances

  12. Clan Control • Development of an internal system of values and norms(i.e. work dress styles, normal working hours, pride taken in work.) • These methods provide control where output and behavioral control does not work. • Strong culture and clan control help worker to focus on the organization and enhance its performance.

  13. Case Study – • Decentralized management style-structure and coherence-reliance on operating mgmt for each subsidiary-outcome control • Financial Plans (5 and 10 year) • Planning horizon (2 year) • Quarterly updates, revisions, and reviews • Monthly management update
