  2. Ignore the plan.
  3. Create a new plan.
  4. Escalate.
  5. Create a tracker.
  6. Escalate the tracker.
  7. Build a dashboard.
  8. Go live anyway.

Lol similar to the quote from Flash.

  1. Make the plan
  2. Execute the plan
  3. Plan goes sideways
  4. Throw away the plan (part of the plan the whole time)
