Cybernetics and Behavioural Economics in Advancing Strategies for Supply Chain Disruption Management - Analysing Gaps and Charting Future Research Directions

This research seeks to fill the existing gaps in Supply Chain Disruption Management (SCDM) by delving into decision-making factors beyond the conventional supply chain parameters, with a focus on behavioural economic theories, organisational culture and cybernetics and systems. Recognizing the current shortfall in connecting human-centric elements to SCDM, the study aims to enhance our understanding of the field comprehensively and suggests future research directions by analysing the existing research gaps. The incorporation of insights from cybernetics and systems thinking adds depth to the interdisciplinary nature of SCDM, providing a valuable perspective on dynamic interactions, feedback mechanisms, and adaptive responses within supply chain systems. By seamlessly combining traditional supply chain theories with behavioural and systemic considerations, the research advocates for a resilient and adaptive paradigm in SCDM, fostering a forward-thinking approach to mitigate the impact of disruptions on global supply chains.
