Abstract
There is an inevitability in virtually every project that there will be changes, so when the project strategy is created one can know for certain that it will need to be adapted. Those who have worked in this project environment will understand full well the impact that change can have. The project may set up correctly and planned to perfection against a strategy that has taken into account all aspects of the tasks, objectives and market place, then orders to change are made, and every careful tactic has to be adjusted.
In war, the general receives his commands from the sovereign, collects his army and concentrates his forces.
When in difficult country, do not encamp. In country where high roads intersect, join hands with your allies. Do not linger in dangerously isolated positions. In hemmed-in situations, you must resort to stratagem. In a desperate position, you must fight.
