Sažetak

The state of uncertainty in the strategic environment has been a persistent challenge
throughout human history. The concept of situational awareness has existed for
many years and entails understanding what is currently happening and, based on
that information, what might occur in the future. Strategic culture represents a
set of beliefs held by a specific community, gradually formed over time through a
unique and lengthy historical process, with clear principles and practical application
regarding the use of force. In this context, effective strategic planning requires a
credible assessment of the starting point and the operational environment in the
form of situational awareness, which is crucial before developing a VUCA (volatility,
uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) strategic plan. Both components support
strategic foresight as a key concept and tool for making effective and timely decisions.
The aim of this paper is to present strategic culture and situational awareness, analyze
scientific sources, and using the example of Ukraine, demonstrate how incomplete
situational awareness can lead to erroneous thinking and, ultimately, tragically
incorrect decisions.
