Bedeutung
Agreeing with a proposed strategy.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Norwegians value 'consensus' (enighet). Saying 'Det er en god plan' is a way to avoid conflict and show you are a 'team player'. Norwegian workplaces are non-hierarchical. An intern can say this to a CEO to show they understand the strategy. The phrase is forever linked to the 'Olsenbanden' movies, where 'en plan' is the start of every comedy of errors. Norwegians can be reserved, so using clear phrases of agreement helps bridge social gaps.
The Silent D
Remember that the 'd' in 'god' is silent. If you pronounce it, you will sound very foreign. Say 'goo'!
Enthusiasm Level
Norwegians aren't usually 'over the top'. A simple 'Det er en god plan' is often more sincere than 'OH MY GOD THAT IS AMAZING!'

Gender Matters
Always use 'en' and 'god' with 'plan'. Using 'et' or 'godt' is the #1 sign of a beginner.
Shorten it
In texts, just write 'God plan!' to sound like a native.
