In the described framework, the management process is cyclic and repeats after controlling.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. It stops after planning
• D. It restarts with leading

Answer: (A)

The management process is a continuous cycle driven by feedback. After you complete the controlling phase, you compare actual performance to the plan, identify gaps, and determine what needs to be adjusted. Those insights are used to revise the plan, resources, and actions, so the cycle starts again. This is why the statement is correct: the process is cyclical and repeats after controlling. It doesn’t stop after planning, and the restart isn’t with leading—leading is part of implementation, while the cycle returns to planning to begin a new iteration.
