According to the author, there are five hedging strategies organizations can pursue. One of them is: Select one: a. commit with fallback b. Do not commit c. commit with no fallback d. allow independent thought

American Professor Alfred A. Marcus (born 1950) in his book "The Future of Technology Management and the Business" (2015) describes that hedging may be a strategy to shield businesses from the rapidly evolving world they face as a result of the continuous implementation of technology in the market. According to Marcus, there are 5 hedge approaches that firms should implement:

Gamble on the most probable: work on the product with the highest success rate.
Take the robust route: invest in as many products as possible.
Delay until further clarity emerges: waiting for a proper moment to react in front of market changes.
Commit with a fallback: adapt according to the market.
Try to shape the future: innovate.
