Plan to Change Your Plan -- Johanna offers more of her usual good advice...
"We've all see the phenomenon that as soon as you've scheduled the project, the schedule is out of date. If you plan to invest in replanning and rescheduling, that doesn't matter."
...and this is advice that can be taken whether you think of your plan as "agile" or as "waterfall" or anything in between. Even if you've got a big duf (big design up front) situation, there is nothing to say that it's necessarily carved in stone.
