It is a well known fact that a basic goal of every company is making a positive result, i.e. profit on the market. It is the only way for it to survive and do business in the long run. The management must realise that only well set goals guarantee well made decisions which will make way for the long-term growth and development of the company. It goes without saying the goals are realistic and achievable. Considering the complexity of conditions of company's doing business, which are changing ever more intensively, and different approaches are imposed, it is necessary to keep track of new, modern trends. For the good quality managerial work in a company, it is essential to have a complete managerial concept permeated with contemporary professional and technical know-how. (Meter, M.: Controlling in practice, the latest trends in controlling, Business efficiency, 2016., page 3). In order to achieve a company's basic goals, different tools are available for better and better quality business and management. One of those tools is the function of controlling. For doing these jobs, a professional and responsible controller that can support managerial work in good quality manner is needed. In doing business, management and controlling are included in the process of creating added value, so they need to cooperate in a high quality way. In this way, the preservation of the existing and the making of new value for the company is achieved. This thesis shows the meaning of controlling, its role, the contribution in goal achievement, and the importance of cooperation with the management while making decisions.
