Overview

Many CEOs and CFOs in large companies have a background in Controlling. Why? Because Controlling is about making the big decisions. Being a Controller means having an overview of business situations, understanding the accounts on the one hand and the managerial side on the other. Controllers are often compared to the navigators on a ship; they know where the ship is and where it needs to go. They play a major role in profitability, analysis, performance evaluation and the viability of mergers and acquisitions.
