Abstract

Zusammenfassung Unternehmen verwenden Management Control Systeme, um die Strategie zu implementieren und sicherzustellen, dass MitarbeiterInnen im Sinne des Unternehmens handeln. Diese umfassen sowohl formale Steuerungsmechanismen (z. B. Anreiz- und Monitoring-Systeme), als auch informelle Steuerungsmechanismen (z. B. MitarbeiterInnenselektion und Unternehmenskultur). In diesem Beitrag geben wir einen Überblick zum aktuellen Stand der empirischen Management Control Forschung und besprechen diese anhand dreier Literaturströmungen. Im ersten Teil beschreiben wir welche Steuerungsmechanismen zur Verfügung stehen und was die Management Control Forschung bisher dazu erarbeitet hat. Darauf aufbauend beschreiben wir im zweiten Teil den sogenannten Kontingenzansatz, in dem untersucht wird, wie der Unternehmenskontext die Anwendung und Wirkung der Steuerungsmechanismen beeinflusst. Im dritten Teil gehen wir schließlich auf Interdependenzen zwischen den Steuerungsmechanismen ein. In jedem dieser Teile wird auf bestehende Forschungslücken hingewiesen. Im letzten Teil des Beitrags wird schließlich ein Ausblick darüber gegeben, wie der Trend hin zur Wissensgesellschaft sowie zur künstlichen Intelligenz und Big Data die Management Control Forschung zukünftig prägen wird.
