Abstract:

The research aims to discuss how to employ the strategic behaviors of (participatory behavior, transformational behavior, procedural behavior) in planning scenarios through its stages represented in (defining basic factors, predicting future scenarios, forming scenarios, and detailing scenarios), as the research problem indicated the existence of Weakness in how strategic behaviors are used in scenarios planning, and therefore the importance of research has been to try to enhance knowledge in this field to suggest solutions to address the problem related to it. In order to achieve the goals of the research, the descriptive approach was adopted, as a questionnaire was designed based on a number of indicators and ready criteria, which were distributed on the strength of (127) individuals from the Asiacell Communications Company, and after data processing using the program (SPSS.V21), was Reaching several results that confirmed the importance of the role that strategic behaviors play in scenarios planning, and accordingly it was recommended that a mechanism be established to enhance coordination between senior management and human resources in order to unify their strategic behaviors, and to invest their results in providing the inputs on which to base scenarios planning
