Answer 1

Control by exception is based on belief that an attempt to control everything will result in controlling nothing.

“Control by exception” means focusing managerial attention only on significant deviations from the set standards. The idea is that trying to monitor every activity can dilute focus and effectiveness, hence only major issues are escalated for action.
