| Abstract |
| In recent years, there has been growing interest in examining the relationships among management control systems, business strategy and firm performance. In this study, the interactions of management control systems and strategy with their impact on firm performance are examined with an empirical analysis, based on the data from 94 manufacturing firms from the top 500 in Turkey in 2014. The results support the postulate that high interaction between interactive control system (ICS) and differentiation strategy (DS) is associated with high firm performance and that high interaction between diagnostic control system (DCS) and cost leadership strategy (CS) is associated with high firm performance. |
