ACCURATEINFORMATION

ON PERFORMANCE MUST BE ACCURATE.

TIMELY

IT MUST BE ATTUNED TO THE ACTIVITY

OBJECTIVE AND COMPREHENSIBLE

IT SHOULD BE UNDERSTANDABLE AND BE SEEN AS OBJECTIVE BY THE INDIVIDUALS WHO USE IT.

FOCUSED ON STRATEGIC CONTROL POINTS

THE CONTROL SYSTEM SHOULD BE FOCUSED ON THOSE AREAS WHERE DEVIATIONS FROM THE STANDARDS ARE MOST LIKELY TO TAKE PLACE OR WHERE DEVIATIONS WOULD LEAD TO THE GREATEST HARM.

CONTROL MUST BE FORWARD LOOKING

RATHER THAN RELYING ON PAST INDICATORS OR HISTORICAL REPORTS ALL THE TIME, FORECASTS AND OTHER FORWARD LOOKING DEVICES MUST BE USED

FLEXIBLE CONTROLS MUST HAVE FLEXIBILITY BUILT INTO THEM SO THAT THE ORGANIZATIONS CAN REACT QUICKLY TO OVERCOME ADVERSE CHANGES OR TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF NEW OPPORTUNITIES.

ECONOMICALLY REALISTIC

THE COST OF ESTABLISHING AND MAINTAINING CONTROLS SHOULD NOT EXCEED THE BENEFITS TO BE DERIVED FROM THEM.

CONTROL SHOULD BE EASY UNDERSTAND

UNLESS PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THEIR PURPOSE AND THE OPERATIONS; THEY BECOME USELESS

CONTROL SHOULD INDICATE CORRECTIVE ACTION

WHO OR WHAT IS CAUSING DEVIATIONS AND WHAT SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT IT IS THE IMPORTANT ASPECT OF CONTROL

COORDINATED WITH THE ORGANIZATION’S WORK FLOW

CONTROL INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE COORDINATED WITH THE FLOW OF WORK THROUGH THE ORGANIZATION

SCHOOL AS AN ORGANIZATION

SCHOOL AS AN ORGANIZATION

Organization theory gives us another dimension of understanding.

It helps us see that many situations we might otherwise see as a matter of personality conflicts, or, maybe, incompetence, are in fact a matter of organizational structure.

This practice is clearly an intelligent trade-off in a tight situation. Its benefits are clear and its costs are hidden. But it takes an overview of the school as an organization to understand it as "making sense," even if we still believe it is an undesirable practice.
