The Impact of control and investigation on establishing and improving accountability culture

Abstract

Control and investigation are considered as major managerial duties, so that, without this element, other functions such as planning, organizing, and directing would be incomplete, and there is no guarantee to effectively accomplish them. On the other hand, if systematic control and supervision are exercised, there won't be any problem to meet organization goals and objectives. But lack of control and accountability will not allow citizen participation in administrative activities, and this results in preventing organizations to have constructive and informative solutions and ideas that probably clients and/or citizens could make available to them. This research project was conducted in Nation's General Investigation organization from a statistical sample of 144 managers and super visor for the last two years. Applying statistical regression analysis, research finding indicate that considering control and investigation elements in organizations such as "organizational accountability", "legal accountability", "professional accountability" and "political accountability" have significantly and effectively affect and improve organization performance and goal achievement.
