The monitoring step of the mission and vision statements development process is analogous to which step of the principles of management framework?

Answer: The "Controlling" step of the management framework.

Explanation: Management principles have been categorised into 4 main functions namely: planning, organising, leading and controlling. In short this is known as the P-O-L-C framework. The aim of this framework is to act as a guide used to assist management in addressing challenges faced by the organisation.

In the monitoring step of the mission and vision statements development is analogous (related) to the controlling element of the framework. In this step, key milestones are identified and recognised over time. Using these milestones, progress is monitored and measured against the objectives of the organisation. Audit can be an important tool used during this step of the process, to confirm whether milestones are effectively monitored.
