An example of evaluating and controlling would be being promoted to senior manager. being named the top employer in the state. using alarms, alerts, and reminders. inspecting products to ensure quality.

The correct answer is **inspecting products to ensure quality**.<br /><br />Evaluating and controlling involves monitoring performance and taking corrective action as needed. Inspecting products to ensure they meet quality standards is a direct example of this process. The inspection evaluates the product against the standards (performance monitoring) and if the product doesn't meet the standards, corrective action can be taken (e.g., discarding the product, reworking it, adjusting the production process).<br /><br />The other options are not examples of evaluating and controlling:<br /><br />* **Being promoted to senior manager:** This is a result of performance evaluation, not the act of evaluating and controlling itself.<br />* **Being named the top employer in the state:** This is a recognition of overall company performance, but not a specific example of the evaluating and controlling process.<br />* **Using alarms, alerts, and reminders:** These are tools that can *support* the evaluating and controlling process, but they are not the process itself. They might alert someone to a potential problem that then needs to be evaluated and controlled.<br />
