I think you are still thinking about your own actions when solving math problems etc. in near mode—because you know them intimately, but about management in far more, i.e. abstractly in terms of planning levels etc. In practice, managers don’t plan as much as you seem to think. Too much planning is not working in practice. Much of it is responses to situations that are learned and become automatic in the same way as dealing with your math problems.
