    Shifts in our planet's biophysical systems are leading to profound changes not only in the environment but also in organizations. In this session, we will explore the limitations of research on organizational adaptation in the context of planetary shifts and discuss how, drawing from ecological theories, scholars can enhance our understanding of organizational adaptation in the era of planetary shifts.
