IASP 2025 Global Conference Call for Speakers - Breakout and Poster Sessions

Conference Theme: Strategic Resilience: Fostering a Culture of Adaptive Planning & Execution

Description

In an era of rapid change, from technological advancements to environmental threats, a static or inflexible approach to planning and execution is a recipe for failure. In Philadelphia we will explore the critical role of cultivating a robust culture of adaptive planning and execution in order to successfully navigate today’s complex challenges. A culture of adaptive planning and execution extends beyond individual strategies or isolated initiatives—it shapes how organizations and communities think and act collectively in the face of change. Embedding adaptive planning into a culture of an organization ensures that planning is not just a periodic activity done by a few individuals, but an ongoing mindset among all staff that influences daily operations, decision-making, and strategy execution.
