Abstract

El control ha sido históricamente considerado parte fundamental para el logro de los objetivos en las organizaciones empresariales. Sin embargo, es ampliamente criticado dada su reacción tardía a las condiciones cambiantes del entorno y su incapacidad para actuar en ausencia de crisis. Por lo anterior, y a fin de identificar las causas que expliquen por qué estos sistemas fallan se exploran en el presente documento el papel y las características del control, soportada para tal fin en aspectos como la teoría del control, las teorías económicas y administrativas, así como resultados de estudios empíricos. El estudio destaca, entre otros aspectos, que los sistemas de control tradicional incluyen instrumentos orientados a la búsqueda de equilibrios estables tales como la centralización, la estandarización y la especialización, los cuales limitan o reducen las posibilidades de actuación de los individuos y por tanto disminuyen la posibilidad de responder Rápida y efectivamente ante nuevas circunstancias
