Rant : Quarterly planning

• First you are asked to present a plan for next quarter in a week's time  • You come up with some random things to present  • You are told that the the targets (impact) are too low and given an unrealistic target.  • You present an unrealistic plan for the revised target.  • You are asked to get the stuff done in even less time and plan for it.  • Every month you're asked as to why the initiatives are not giving expected impact.  • At the end of the quarter you are asked (humiliated) why you're not able to deliver on the plan that you yourself made  • You are asked to present plans for the next quarter next week  • the cycle just repeats
