Answer
A general perception towards controlling is that under it a person is always monitored and hence his freedom is lost.
This perception has been developed from older management system where in the business owners used to keep a very strict supervision on their organizations.
Such supervision created a fear of making mistakes and a negative environment.
The real objective of controlling is not to spread fear but to encourage innovation and quality production. Systematic controlling leads to lesser mistakes, higher quality and production and improved productivity.
This also creates opportunity for employees to improve upon their mistakes and personal efficiency.
Thus, controlling is not a negative but a positive function.
