Planning
Planning is the process of setting goals, developing strategies,
and outlining tasks and schedules to achieve those goals. It
involves analyzing current situations, anticipating future
conditions, and making decisions that guide the organization or
individual towards desired outcomes. Effective planning reduces
uncertainty, optimizes resource use, and provides direction by
establishing clear objectives and the steps needed to reach them.
It's an essential activity in both personal and professional
contexts, ensuring that efforts are aligned, risks are managed,
and goals are achieved efficiently.
