Abstract
The paper addresses two important variables for current organizations, particularly the early warning system and smart organization. Because organizations are smart, they need the capacity of these principles to be driven to achieve value to reach their primary goals, which are success, survival, and affirmation of superiority among their competitors. Theoretically, the study includes a brief theory on the early warning system and smart organization with their principles. In terms of practice, the authors selected two major mobile phone companies (Korek and Asiacell), showing tough competition with each other. The questionnaire was used as an important tool for data collection. The studied samples represent the executive management team working in the two companies, with six top directors from each company chosen as the sample. The research problem focuses on the diagnosis of the adoption of elements of the early warning system in the investigated organizations, as well as the extent to which the principles of smart organizations are presented in the examined organizations. The research is summarized in two points: (a) the surveyed organizations have acceptable levels of smart organization principles and adopt the elements of the early warning system; (b) the examined organizations tend to consider the three principles of smart organization as desirable and somewhat equivalent, depending on the availability of the components of the early warning system.
