Many organizations struggle to balance predictability with adaptability in large initiatives. Too much planning creates rigidity, while too little leads to chaos. In this episode of the Humanizing Work Show, we dive into Phases 3 & 4 of CAPED—our Complexity-Aware Planning, Estimation, and Delivery approach—where we create a structured execution plan while keeping room for change.
Phase 3 (Analytical Planning) ensures that teams build a realistic, risk-aware plan by defining What we’re building, How we’ll ensure quality, and When it will be delivered.
Phase 4 (Iterative Execution) brings that plan to life with incremental delivery, adaptive prioritization, and continuous planning cycles that keep projects aligned and valuable.
By the end of this episode, you’ll understand how to move from uncertainty to structured execution, without falling into the trap of rigid planning.
