ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT: CONTROLLING

THE VIDEO IS ABOUT ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT FUNCTION: CONTROLLING
Control is installing processes to guide the team towards goals and monitoring performance towards goals (Batemen & Snell, 2013). The purpose of the control function is to ensure that the organization makes progress towards the established goals. This is done prior to implementation of the gameplan as a manager anticipates what might go wrong. Control is done during the process of implementation as the manager monitors the progress and makes changes as needed. As such, the control function of management is highly intertwined with the planning phase. The guides that managers use to ensure progress and the mechanisms used to monitor progress are areas that need direct consideration before the plan implementation begins.
