What is the feedback in controlling?

Answer

To ensure that controlling function is effectively performed, there must be prompt flow of information to the manager about the actual performance. The necessary corrective actions must also promptly follow. Such a system of communication is called feedback in controlling. Feedback plays a very important role in the process of controlling. Without feedback, actual performance cannot be compared and no corrective action can be taken.
