Controlling in education management

More than just checking figures!

Controlling is often seen as a purely business management task. However, it involves far more than just checking figures. The central task of controlling is to determine what has already been achieved on the way to the respective goal and what challenges still need to be overcome. The subtasks include planning, budgeting, operational and process data collection, monitoring, variance analysis, reporting and management proposals. In our module, controlling is understood as the entirety of concepts and instruments with which organisations can be managed. Among other things, we teach how key performance indicator systems can be adapted for specific companies or organisations and what role controlling plays in innovation and transformation processes.
