Abstract

The financial crisis is a significant challenge that can affect the economic stability of individuals and organizations. The research aims to identify effective strategies, tactics, and proactive approaches in dealing with financial crises, with a focus on ways to survive and bounce back towards financial stability. A qualitative descriptive approach is used in this study, involving literature studies, in-depth interviews with financial experts, as well as case study analysis from various organizations that have experienced crises. The results reveal that portfolio diversification, liquidity strengthening, and prudent debt management are important steps that can improve resilience to crises. In addition, proactive approaches such as monitoring and early detection, scenario planning, and human resource development, have proven effective in preparing for and dealing with market uncertainty. Strong leadership and transparent communication were also identified as key factors in maintaining team morale and ensuring support from stakeholders during times of crisis. Further, innovation and adaptability in the midst of change become a competitive advantage that helps organizations not only survive, but also thrive after a crisis. In conclusion, a combination of the right financial strategy, a proactive approach, and effective leadership is an essential element in dealing with a financial crisis. By implementing these measures, individuals and organizations can increase their chances of surviving and bouncing back towards sustainable financial stability.
