Weaving in an intricate case study throughout, Trust the Plan shows executives how to develop and lead Demand Management processes that are trustworthy and will enable business objectives to be achieved. Topics include the rationale for trustworthy planning; the difference between goals and plans; roles and responsibilities; and best practice characteristics of processes, performance measures, and individual capabilities.
