Planning for Projects

""Whenever I start something I just dive in. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't... in fact usually it doesn't. I guess they're right: fail to prepare, prepare to fail!" But Micaela - she always plans it out: to start with it looks like a load of extra hassle, but & always gets amazing results."

Project planning is about stating how to complete a project with certain resources and within a certain timeframe.

Project planing often involves setting objectives, identifying deliverables, planning a schedule, communicating with team members, and assessing risks.
