The purpose of the study is to know how employees, managers and decisions makers react to challenging situations when the routine plan does not work, what is their reaction to uncertainties and if they deviate from standard operating procedures, what cost do they pay for it. Decision makers from organizations with different functions, objectives and goals were investigated. Interviews were conducted with the decision-makers and employees of diverse organizations.
