Management Control Manager


Explanation:
¡Hola, Valeria!

También encontré esto y me pareció interesante:

Some people even react strongly against the phrase "management control". The word itself can have a negative connotation, e.g., it can sound dominating, coercive and heavy-handed. It seems that writers of management literature now prefer use of the term "coordinating" rather than "controlling".

Pero *Management Control Manager* no me parece mal y en vista de que la NASA lo utiliza...

¡SaludoZ!
