Summary / Abstract (Note) | Military professionals must be good planners. General George S. Patton Jr. wrote: “A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan next week.”1 President (and retired General of the Army) Dwight D. Eisenhower similarly said: “If you haven’t been planning you can’t start to work, intelligently at least.”2 Finally, some unknown but brilliant philosopher said: “Proper prior planning prevents piss-poor performance.” |
