Summary

Introduction

The pandemic raises some relevant questions for both researchers and practitioners seeking adaptability, dynamism and stability in the organizational context as we no longer have the groundwork, we have previously tested to establish directions. A lot of ink has been spilled looking for a definition for COVID-19 based on the similarities and differences from other crises If this slice of life registers itself as a "black swan"- type of manifestation (Taleb, 2018) we could make the most of the flag indicators we might have ignored so far, learn and come up with mature detection routines quickly and in collaboratively calibrated measures. If it is just "a brutal shaking of the environment" (Christensen, 1997) we would find a way to steer the course until things would return to normal, much as it seems already, the virus might be a few years- long turmoil during which permanent changes could materialize. As for the way in which these routines have been applied by organizations or officials, deducting from the reactions they manifested, one could say that they were either applied correctly or they were ignored
