Proceedings of the INTERNATIONAL MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE, 2021, vol. 15, issue 1, 778-791

Abstract: Although statistics from recent years indicate a significant trend of increasing the level of interaction in the online environment between the various representatives of organizations and their stakeholders, the COVID 19 Pandemic has generated an unprecedented escalation of this mean of communication. Threats to human health have been supplemented by the near-complete shutdown of economies and employees and their management have faced situations with an unplanned impact. The same sanitary restrictions that imposed the isolation of people in homes encouraged the predominant use, in communication, of virtual channels and favoured the multiplication of the phenomenon called fake news. By collecting and processing published and accessible information in the literature, the paper analyses, from an analytical existential perspective, and through a qualitative interview how to make human decisions in the specific context of the COVID 19 crisis and the impact of these fake news, propagated with or without intention, on the behaviour of employees and aims to provide some recommendations to the management of these organizations to address the challenges of the coming period.
