Command vs control

Command is the authority to decide and prioritise.
Control is the regulation and direction of forces to implement decisions.

Command

  • Establishes intent.
  • Allocates resources.
  • Sets priorities.

Control

  • Issues instructions.
  • Synchronises timing.
  • Adjusts actions during execution.

Effective leaders command centrally and control selectively to preserve initiative.
