Abstract

Early warning indicators play a major role in assisting governmental and private organizations in managing the crises surrounding them. Hence, the senior administrations of these organizations must follow up and monitor these indicators and make the appropriate decisions. However, the large number of these indicators and the preoccupation of the departments with the tasks of development and organization make them Is obliged to follow up on its behalf, which can cause crises due to the misjudgment or follow-up of those assigned to follow up those indicators, and since it is the task of the senior senior departments to protect the organization from these crises, It is necessary to find practical solutions that will enable these departments to monitor and monitor early warning indicators and at the same time be able to perform their other developmental tasks. This study is intended to identify the role that the implementation of key warning indicators can play in crisis management. From the idea of ​​performance indicators The main objectives of the organization's performance, which is characterized by its small number and its focus on key performance components, are: by answering the study problem of the following main question: What is the role of early warning indicators in crisis management? The result of this question, which was answered by a series of sub-questions, was as follows: The use of the main early warning indicators enables the senior management of governmental and private organizations to monitor and monitor these indicators on their own and on a continuous basis without adversely affecting their other tasks In the areas of development and organization because of their small number and their being directed towards crises of great influence. Based on the above, the study recommended that early warning indicators should be developed for crisis management, which are crisis-oriented and have a significant impact on the stability of the organization.Early Warning Indicators play an important role in helping public and private organizations to manage crisis in its environment. Therefore, it is essential for higher management in public and private organizations to take the responsibility of monitoring these indicators and take actions accordingly However, the large number of these indicators, and the multi tasks for the higher management result in delegating the task of monitoring early warning indicators to other which may cause problems for the organization because of the delegated people mis-judgcment and poor follow-up. Since it is the responsibility of the higher management to protect the organization from getting in deep problems, practical solutions are required to allow higher management to handle the task of following and monitoring the early warning indicators. For that reason, This study came to identify the role of applying key early warning indicators in managing crisis through answering the following question: what is the role of key early warning indicators in managing crisis? The result of this study which was through answering a set of sub-queries is that using key early warning indicators allow higher managements in the public and private sectors to follow and monitor these indicators without any negative impact on the higher management's performance in other tasks in organizing and developing areas for two reasons. First, the number of key early warning indicators is limited. Second, the key early warning indicators focus on serious issues. Based on the result of this study, our recommendation is to build key early warning indicators for crisis management that focus on crisis with greater impact on the organization's stability. Also, the responsibility of following and monitoring these indicators must be handled by the higher management.
