“Every individual employee in the organization plays a role in controlling work activities.” Do you agree, or do you think control is something that only managers are responsible for? Explain

If managers are the only people that control anything, then the organization is going to be stagnant, slow and clumsy - and the managers will go crazy - unless they are all micromanaging control freaks.

The best employees understand their job, and take ownership - which means they make decisions and effectively have control of their job. Of course they need to operate within procedural guidelines so that there is not chaos - but they should have some say in how procedures work as long as they fit within overall corporate mission and strategy, and mesh with other company areas and functions.
