Planning and controlling are two separate functions of management, yet they are
closely related. The scope of activities if both are overlapping to each other.
Planning and controlling are inter-related to each other. Planning sets the goals for the
organization and controlling ensures their accomplishment. Planning decides the control
process and controlling provides sound basis for planning.
Without the basis of planning, controlling activities becomes baseless and without
controlling, planning becomes a meaningless exercise. In absence of controlling, no purpose can
be served by. Therefore, planning and controlling reinforce each other.
