planners
Those who arrange
Planners are people who make plans or organize activities.
A city planner designs urban development; a wedding planner coordinates ceremonies.
Planners also refers to books or tools for scheduling: I keep track of appointments in my planner.
The word can carry slight condescension when contrasting with doers: The planners never consulted the people actually doing the work.
