11. Management Activities Plan Evaluate Execute Control Information System Planning requires leaders to define the business objectives , to prioritize business processes, and to provide a blueprint for achieving the objectives. They must identify opportunities available to the organization as well as assess the risk associated with each opportunity. Control is exercised by reviewing the results of an activity or an entire business process to see if they are consistent with expectations. The review may cause a change in expectations or a change in the way an activity or a process is performed to bring the actual results in line with expectations. Periodically, managers evaluate the operating results to see if the business processes are achieving the organization's objectives. The results of the evaluation are used to modify the plans, objective, or expectations. Managers execute their plan by dividing business processes into smaller activities, assigning people to perform each activity, and motivating them to do a good job. A clearly defined plan increases the likelihood of proper execution
