WHY PLAN?

  • A plan is a management tool.
  • A plan provides quantifiable means of measuring progress or lack thereof.
  • A plan diminishes the demands on the manager’s time.
  • A plan gets you back on track after a distraction.
  • A plan keeps some part of your campaign proactive rather than reactive, even in the face of a disaster.
