This statement is absolutely right. Here, the ‘principle of critical point control’ is applicable.
According to this principle, those points or activities should be determined in the very outset which have an important role to play in ensuring the actual work progress in accordance with the plans. These are known as Key Result Areas (KRAs). It means that the managers should not be involved in small insignificant activities but should pay more attention to those activities where unfavourable results can cause heavy loss to the enterprise.
