Abstract

Management control has evolved from a control activity, where the main target was to verify and realize the default standard, to an entity management tool, that reflects a wide range of problems related to the process of objectives achievement. A deep analysis of the domestic and foreign specialty literature concerning the definition of management control, allows the division of scientists’ views into two groups of scientific approaches, and mainly: classical and modern. The classical approach of management control is considered a computing which ensures the measurement of performances, while the modern approach represents a strategic tool for further entity management. Keywords: management control, classical approaches, modern approaches.
