For the most part, everyone is terrible at estimation [0], yet in business we do it all the time and consistently fall into the same traps. I wonder how an organization would be fare if they tried a top down approach to avoid estimation (or at least treat is as dirty process it is). Would this even be possible with the way companies are run today?
