sound planning is a must Explanation: I believe the emphasis is on a good, sound program or plan/planning or strategy. Operating/going forward/ without the plan will lead to failure or is a risk nobody should take. To me your phrase says "this is how you operate with a plan/strategy" as opposed to risking having none Most of my suggestions therefore do away with the "Agieren" part. variations: making it work with good/sound planning operate/operating with sound plans/planning a good plan of action is a must tough (economic) times call for a good plan/sound strategy a good plan of action/strategy is a must no time for experiments http://www.allbusiness.com/specialty-businesses/742569-1.htm... good plan/planning make it work -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 hrs (2009-10-24 06:03:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- PS: I did include the "Agieren" part in most of my suggestions after all.:) |
