Answer 1

(a) An efficient controlling system helps in achieving all the aforementioned objectives. Controlling refers to the process of assessing the progress of the current tasks and activities and setting the work standards to achieve the goals of the organisation. An efficient control system helps in keeping a close watch on the progress of the work towards the accomplishment of the organisational goals and takes the required corrective actions. It helps in tracking the changes taking place in the organisation and the business environment and thereby, helps in judging the accuracy of the standards set. Along with this, controlling boosts employee morale by telling them in advance about what is expected from them and motivating them to work according to the set policies.
