For the benefit of other discussants, briefly describe

  • The organization and the organization’s inputs (mission or direction, key external concerns, and key internal concerns).
  • The transformation step (what are the goals, what sorts plans are used to reach the goals and how does implementation occur?).
  • The outputs in relation to the organization’s goals.
  • Given the organization, what methods are used to measure its performance?
  • What sorts of controls are applied?
  • Are these performance measures and controls appropriate?
  • If not, what revisions do you propose in terms of control and performance measures?
