Abstract

This qualitative review is on management control attributes and organisational performance; the study tried to determine how much financial control, budget control and marketing control affect organisational performance. Theoretical foundations were established, and extant literature drew to uphold or invalidate these positions. Qualitative literature established a significant relationship between the objectives and corporate performance values. Recommendations and conclusions were drawn accordingly from the ranks set.
