1. Create climate for planning:
Conducive climate must be provided so that activities proceed smoothly and systematically and as planned.
2. Support from the top management:
Since planning is pervasive in nature hence the concept of planning must be started at the top levels of the organisation. In other words, the planning cannot be initiated until and unless the top management supports this concept and provides continuous attention. They must be willing to extend a helping hand, whenever required.
3. Equal Participation:
Plans can only be implemented if the employees acknowledge this concept and are ready to participate in the whole processes. So, it is necessary to secure acceptance and commitment from each and everyone in the organisation.
4. Proper communication:
Nothing can be possible in the organisation until and unless there is a proper and a well developed communication network hence goals, premises and policies must be properly communicated to people. People must know what they are supposed to do, when, how and where. The time limits must also be communicated in advance.
5. Integration:
All the plans that have been formulated must be properly balanced and integrated with the organisational Mission Statement. They must support each other and should not work at cross purposes. Every attempt should be made to ensure that there is minimum wastage of the efforts and the resources so that the pay-offs of planning are more than the costs involved.
6. Strict monitoring:
Plans must be subjected to regular and appraisal in view of the dynamic nature of the environment that includes both the internal as well as external changes. The best way to enable proper monitoring is by keeping the plan flexible to the extent possible.
