Final post

From my point of view I feel that planning is the most important part of management. One of the first management concepts that I learned was that planning and controlling are "siamese twins."They go hand in hand with each other. The first step to controlling is to PLAN. There are two cycles to planning; planning and NOT planning. The key to planning is to put out "fires" before they happen or as fast as possible. If there is a plan in place, and a problem or "fire" happens there are measures in place to keep the damage at a minimum. Thats why I believe planning is most important. If you have a good plan of action and a problem arises you wont be hindered.
