Abstract: Abstract Today, management science, like all other areas of human life, has been severely affected by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis. The challenges that the crisis have created for various areas of management have had many consequences and in many cases have led to the loss and bankruptcy of many businesses. Hence, management theorists and practitioners need to address each of these challenges and issues in detail. Therefore, the year of the COVID-19 crisis has created a critical and epoch-making year for management knowledge. Accordingly, a big picture of changes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the organization and management studies is important. Thus, the chapter has pursued this important goal in three parts. In the first part, we examine theoretical foundations of organization and management that have changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The second part deals with organizational areas affected by the pandemic. In the last section, we will review the recommendations made by management theorists in the face of the pandemic. Finally, in the conclusion section, using the results of the studies conducted in these three sections, we focus on research currents in the organization and management studies faced with the pandemic. In this section, two research currents were identified: the revolutionary current and the developmental current. Each of these currents can totally transform the future of management theory and practice. Then, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on collapse and creation of businesses were examined.
