Control freaks might be straightforward about what they want (good thing). They might shout and bully to get what they want (bad thing). But it will tend to be clear what it is they *do* want and that they're setting out to get it.
Manipulative people might or might not reveal what they want, but will typically achieve their ends in ways that are underhand, passive aggressive or otherwise "hidden".
