Explanation

In Agile Management, a plan can be changed 'When we have learned something new' (B). This reflects one of Agile's core values: responding to change over following a plan. Agile embraces empiricism - as new information emerges (from stakeholder feedback, changing requirements, technical discoveries, or market shifts), the plan is updated to reflect that learning. Option A (end of iteration) is too restrictive. Option C (Daily Meeting) is incorrect as the Daily Standup is for synchronization, not replanning. Option D contradicts Agile principles entirely.
