“a good deal of corporate planning … is like a ritual rain dance. it has no effect on the weather that follows, but those who engage in it think it does. … moreover, much of the advice related to corporate planning is directed at improving the dancing, not the weather.”

Brian Quinn

underway or making way?way in nautical terms is there is sufficient water passing under the rudder that may be steered. the word “underway” means that a vessel is not at anchor, or made fast to the shore, or the least desirable scenario, aground. a vessel being purposefully propelled through the water, by oars, sail or machinery, becomes a vessel making way
