Abstract: Abstract Assumptions, not facts, are the building blocks of our knowledge of the world around us. Therefore, monitoring of key assumptions is an integral part of strategic thinking and crisis management. Our guiding motto is “Know thy assumptions and prepare for the highly likely event that they will be rendered false.” We hope that we have examined enough crises and assumptions so that the reader is better equipped to face new crises head on and to anticipate and uncover the critical assumptions that underlie them.
