Peter F. Drucker article on anticipating uncertainty in business and society, and planning for it accordingly. Drucker distinguishes between traditional planning and planning for uncertainty, stating that the second is the more practical option because it looks to the past to predict future occurrences. He proceeds to note that organizations must take into account not only women and a more highly-educated, white collar workforce, but also an aging labor population in understanding shifts in the economy and meeting these changes successfully.
