Answer 1

Once plans are made to decide the future course of action, the management may not be in a position to change them.

Explanation - 

A well-defined plan is drawn up at an organisation with clear goals to be achieved "within a specific 'time' period." The future course of action is then determined by these plans, and managers may not be able to change it. This kind of rigidity in plans might cause problems.
