Get used to it, pretty boy. Murphy’s law takes no prisoners when it comes to disrupting the best-laid plans. If you don’t have a strategy for dealing with change, your project is going to eat you alive.

In this chapter, you’re going to learn how to create plans you can believe in and follow through on commitments you and your team make.

By learning how to plan projects the agile way, you’ll sleep easier knowing your plan is always up-to-date, you’ve set expectations openly and honestly, and change isn’t something to be feared but instead used as a competitive advantage.
