Abstract
Organizations have recently experienced increased risks due to political, technological, social,
legislative, and environmental volatility. Accordingly, effective management should strive to
enhance crisis prevention and preparedness activities that mitigate risks and strengthen
organizational resilience and response capabilities. Modern crises challenge traditional crisis
management preparedness approaches and decision making, ranging from modes of
collaboration and application of emerging technologies to needs for real-time information
sharing and ways of adequately addressing stakeholders. Hence, this research aims to assess
the effectiveness and challenges of modern tool use and provide an overview of activities and
approaches that organizations can employ in their modern crisis preparedness and resilience
strengthening strategies. Secondary data from relevant scientific and professional sources was
used. Findings indicate that a proactive communication approach, collaboration, innovation,
and digital transformation shape the current effective crisis management. Research limitations
include the application of secondary data and the extent of available, relevant literature. This
research provides insights towards a more comprehensive understanding of crisis
preparedness and crisis management literature, as well as provides benefits to organizations
by highlighting key trends.
