A perspective on planning and crises in the public sector

Strategic Management Journal, 1981, vol. 2, issue 2, 181-196

Abstract: Five diagrams indicate how crises open up five different kinds of ‘opportunity space’. Expanded opportunity spaces involve, in effect, a relaxation of the ‘normal’ constraints around decision‐making in governmental systems. This perspective may allow for better prediction of crises, better choices during crises, and greater stability in solutions to crises.
