| Abstract | ||||
| The last decade has witnessed two main incidents that played a significant role in shaping the whole world; COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian–Ukraine war. Both incidents have impacted the strategic and med-term plans of each single government, policies governing all developmental sectors, companies and their governing policies; mainly employment and HR policies, as well as individuals’ employability and future plans. The response of developed and underdeveloped countries to those two incidents showed that the world was not prepared or equipped to deal with sudden crises, despite the fact that many intellectual figures have raised their fears of the possibility of having a pandemic outbreak that would affect the whole world. Similarly, in the recent years, WHO keeps raising red flags on a new pandemic that is expected to be of a worse impact than that of Covid-19 (WHO, 2023) . This paper aims to discuss the role of future studies, scenario building, and strategic planning in preparing for such crises and managing them properly. Complexity, rapid pace, interlinked activities, and challenges are main features of both the present and the future world. Therefore, pre-disaster planning is a largely substantial matter that requires a strong and effective foresight relationship between experts, leaders, and decision makers. Moreover, the paper aims to discuss the strategic planning – agile management paradox as a prerequisite for crisis effective management. | ||||
