Summary

In Chapter 2, we perform a systematic, cross-disciplinary review of the most influential journal articles on organizational control to synthesize our definition of organizational control. We provide a comparison of how organizational control has been conceptualized across the disciplines of accounting, information systems (IS), management, marketing, and operations management, and present a citation network that illustrates the multidisciplinary intellectual underpinnings of our control definition as well as influential articles that have shaped the field’s understanding of organizational control. We conclude our conceptualization of organizational control by discussing overlap and differences with related constructs, such as power, structure, culture, and the locus of control.
