“…A common consequence is excessive attention to individual performance isolated from the long-term, organisational objectives. This drives organisations to leave aside aspects of contribution and to focus instead on a set of narrow practices for framing and rewarding task objectives (Duckett and Langford, 2013).

Organisational control systems are a central phenomenon, yet despite their significance, top-down command-and-control approaches often dominate research. This surmise creates no problem in hierarchical organisations where everyone knows their work duties and what is expected of them. However, it becomes troublesome in knowledge work, where the sets of tasks carried out by any two members of the organisation differ significantly. The article offers conceptual insights elucidating control systems based on the notion of accountability; which help to raise awareness and mobilise efforts beyond the boundaries of long-established hierarchical control. Implications for the theory and practice of organisational control are discussed.
