A person knows that planning is wrong when

• He fails in his work or studies.
• It takes longer than the time specified in planning.
• Feel anxious, tense.
• Time is wasted and business is piling up.

The planning process is one of the basic administrative processes in life, for any person, whether he is a student, worker, or manager. Planning in general is closely related to the person’s progress and development in the planned thing, but in order to achieve remarkable success, goals must be set first. .

It is also mentioned that an incorrect planning process may inevitably lead to failure, in addition to wasting a lot of time, without benefit or result. For this reason, the requirements for good planning must be known, and the factors affecting the progress of the planning process.

What are the requirements for good planning?

• Setting goals.
• Information organization.
• Planning flexibility.
• Resistance to changes.
• Merging long and short term plans.
• Estimation and prediction.

Setting goals:  For the success of the planning process, your goals must be defined first, just as if you are going down a path, you must know where this path leads you, and you must set flexible, achievable goals, while setting your goals within a specific time range.

Organizing information:  To work on developing your plan towards success, you will need to organize your information and data, in addition to choosing some alternatives so that the variables do not surprise you.

Planning flexibility:  When you develop a specific plan, you must take into account that it is event-oriented, in order to be prepared in the event that events change with your alternative plan. For this reason, planning must be flexible to deal with unexpected events.

Resistance to changes:  Variables usually cause your mind to wander and re-plan, and although change is not easy, managing your plan well will give you resistance to variables in a smooth way.

Integration of long and short-term plans:  You must adopt a long- and short-term plan, to ensure the success of planning and achieve your goals, taking into account the integration, integration and coordination of both plans, without one conflicting with the other.

Estimation and forecasting:  Predicting what will happen in the future is one of the most important steps in planning, as it is necessary to predict and develop possibilities for changes, whether social, personal, economic changes, and so on.

What are the types of planning

• strategic.
• tactical.
• operational.
• emergency.

Managers usually rely on the aforementioned types of planning to achieve the objectives of the work system, and to know the right direction for the organization to ensure the success of its path:

Strategic Planning:

• This type of planning is used to achieve the most desirable goals, but in the long run. It is one of the most common types of planning.
• Depends on the manager or the highest rank of the institution, for what he requires of a high intellectual level.
• It is coordinated when planning in any business.
• Strategic planning involves defining the organization's vision.
• It includes activating schedules, recording initial work indicators and following up on their progress.
• It is used in case of any sudden changes in the direction of the markets.

Tactical layout:

• It relies on tactical planning to determine the goals to be achieved in the short term. Helps achieve the goals of the strategic plan.
• The tactical planning mode is based on the middle-level departments in the system.
• After defining the desired objectives for a specific section of the system, the next section is moved to with another tactical plan..and so on.

operational planning:

• Also known as action planning, this is the type used in everyday tasks.
• Organizations rely on practical planning, to elaborate work details for all parties.
• Operational planning may be divided into two types “individual planning and ongoing planning”.
• Once the individual plans and achieves the desired goal, his job ends, for example, if the marketing department achieves the goal, the department will develop another plan for another purpose or goal... and so on.
• While the planning is in progress, it is used repeatedly for several purposes, with its development if necessary.

contingency planning:

• Also called special planning, for use in specific circumstances or situations.
• In the case of contingency planning, changes are completely unexpected.
• The contingency planning situation depends on the business leader, to avoid heavy losses to the system.
• A contingency plan is developed and approved, for example if a product fails to market.
• If a contingency plan is not specified, the affected company may be forced to lay off some of its employees.

What are the reasons for planning

• Determine the direction.
• Risk removal.
• improve efficiency.

Direction setting:  Without good planning, there are no real goals, so planning helps you create and achieve your goals, as it creates a vision of what you want to do to achieve your desired goals.

Removing risks:  Good planning may help you overcome the risks related to your decisions, because planning deals flexibly with unexpected variables, and it also enhances your sense of success.

Improving efficiency:  Planning is the main axis for better work delivery, as it is regulated by the resources used and the extra cost. Without good planning, the system may unintentionally consume a lot of resources.

One of the conditions for the success of the plan is imagination, intuition and guesswork

No, wrong phrase.

Planning should depend on realism more than imagination and intuition, because unexpected changes do not occur, as realism helps you to form a correct vision, to set your goals according to your vision.
