Question:Carefully review all of the learning material in chapter 17 (see attached) before responding to this discussion, you are likely to score less than 50% if you do not use the learning input. View the video extract from the movie Blackhawk Down (Management in the movies, 2008, opens in new tab, runs 3:33). The US military has a formal structure with advanced planning capabilities and centralized controls. However, the military of most other countries have strong autocratic controls. Against this backdrop, consider the need for control in achieving organizational objectives for a specific business or government department. Include objectives to create increased value, reduced risks, and reduced costs - thereby achieving optimal outcomes. The cases on pages 412 to 415 may provide ideas for students with limited work experience.
Required:
1. Provide a posting that describes your selected organization (in less than 30 words). Then describe the value and role of control to achieve optimal outcomes in a further 150 to 225 words.
2. Use formal writing. Errors will reduce your grade.
3. Grading will only consider content relating to management concepts.
5. Apply critical thinking. Agreement, quoting other learners, or repeating the case content (without analysis) will count as zero words and zero points.
