Question
What were the reasons behind controls being designed?
For this journal entry, critically consider controls relevant to your context. Reflect on some controls you might have been involved with developing in the past, or others that you have interacted with that have been implemented in your organisation.
Think of a few concrete examples of controls that attempted to alter human behaviour, and try to evaluate their efficacy. Additionally, try to identify an example of each control type, namely policies, processes, and systems.
In formulating your journal entry, you may find it valuable to consider the following:
1. What kinds of human behaviour resulted in the creation of these controls?
2. Were these controls successful in altering human behaviour? If not, try to imagine what would have been a more seamless fit for the organisation's employees and office culture.
3. Can you identify any control-based nudges used in your organisation?
