Meaning of planning

In Class 12 Business Studies, this topic explains the meaning of planning as deciding in advance what is to be done, how it will be done, when it should happen, and who will carry it out. Students understand planning as a basic management function that gives direction to business activities, helps set objectives, guides decision-making, coordinates efforts, and prepares an organisation to respond to future uncertainty.
