Taking managerial action to correct deviations or to address inadequate standards (control) (2),”Depending on the problem, a manager could take different corrective actions. A manager must decide whether to take immediate corrective action (=corrective action that addresses problems at once to get performance back on track) or to use basic corrective action (= corrective action that looks at how and why performance deviated before correcting the source of deviation)- Revise the standard: it is possible that the variance was a result of an unrealistic standard. However, when performance does is outside the standard for a while
is does not immediately mean that the goal is wrong.”
