I don’t think it inherently does, unless the planning is done by a micromanager or otherwise deemphasizes the input of the people doing the work.

Ideally, the goal of planning would be identifying requirements and deadlines plus determining what approach works best for the teams/individuals whose work is being planned out.

It can unconsciously lock you in to a certain approach that may be limited

It depends on the level of granularity in the planning process. Have you defined phases and high-level activities or you are doing deep dive where every single action/task is strictly defined? If it's the former then the creativity should not be impacted, if the latter then you are containing it to a predictable outcome and it can be affected significantly.

Would anyone be willing to share best practices about how their organization deals with ensuring Cookie Compliance, specifically to GDPR rules? Where should this sort of compliance review sit in an organization? The particular issue we have is who should review new web deployments that use cookies and to make the decisions on whether Cookies are Strictly Necessary or Functionality Cookies. For example is a Cookie required for a Live Chat to work Functionality or Strictly Necessary? Our Security team does not consider taking on these compliance reviews as their domain, as Cookie Compliance is not an internal security matter and the Data Protection team has a limited interest as the GDPR rules around Cookies apply in case of any Cookie being used by a website, whether or not it contains personal data.

I would say, DPO and Security team both shall be involved and work hand in hand.

Most of the time the legals and or DPO don't have the technical acumen to understand when data is floating to third party services.
