Managers in the 1990s grappled with the pivotal challenge of maintaining sufficient control in their organizations. Those changing times required ingenuity and adaptability to manage the employees. In highly competitive industries with diverse clientele, organizations had to depend on employee imagination and creativity to seize opportunities and meet customer demands.

The challenges of maintaining control exposed businesses to excessive risks or led to behaviors that harmed an organization's reputation. Control failures harmed the organizations substantially in terms of reputational damage, fines, business setbacks, and lost opportunities.

This PowerPoint presentation explains the Levers of Control (LoC) framework postulated by Robert Simons, a Harvard professor. LoC aims to strike a balance between managing and controlling an organization.

The Levers of Control model encompasses 4 levers:

1. Belief Systems – These convey core values and prompt people to support the company's mission.

2. Boundary Systems – These establish limits and guide people about undesirable, intolerable behaviors.

3. Diagnostic Control Systems – These measure and track strategy execution and inform resource allocation.

4. Interactive Control Systems – These entail dynamic information flow and the engagement of leadership across all ranks of the organization to tackle ambiguities and insecurities.

These 4 control levers assist managers in their endeavor to stimulate employee creativity, proactivity, and belonging to a shared sense of purpose. Each lever of the LoC model serves different purposes in connection with the organization's Business Strategy and goals.

This presentation discusses each Lever of Control in detail, including identifying compatible management styles and the appropriate business strategy. Additional topics discussed include the 6 influential factors (within the organizational environment), several LoC case studies, objectives & behaviors, among others.

This PowerPoint presentation on the Levers of Control (LoC) also includes some slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.
