For this discussion forum, please think about the issues and then write two or three paragraphs with emphasis on why you agree or disagree; implications for which type of company (if any) and why; and remedies where appropriate, etc. Please do not write more than about a half page (if that). Do not be trying to "win points with me" on this - you will not hurt my feelings!! For example, one could argue that complete flexibility is the absence of a plan!!

After a bit of time has passed, go back and respond to at least one but no more than two other person's posts. Go beyond "I agree" or "that is my opinion as well" types of replies. That is, try and offer something with more depth but please maintain a professional approach in however you respond. Please identify to whom it is you are posting a comment. Here is the comment to which you respond;

Professor William C. Green argues "that in today's business environment, maintaining flexibility is as important or even more important than planning"

So, two parts to this - your own response and then your reaction to one but no more than two other responses. Please do not "google" any of this - that defeats the entire purpose.
