Abstract
As so often in discussions of management control, we return to the seminal idea of Robert Anthony’s three levels of control: strategic, managerial and operational. Earlier chapters of this book have been critical of this taxonomy, but it very serviceable as an ideal type from which we may extend our analysis. In this chapter we leave aside the issues of strategic and managerial aspects and turn to the consideration of operational control.
