There is a misconception that in Agile development you can plan as you go along. In fact, you still need to plan ahead. What is different compared with waterfall development is that we respond to change over following a plan created when we knew less than we do now.

We also talk about understanding dependencies and risks so that those can be planned for, rather than being surprised by them late in the development cycle.
