Purpose: The article discusses the results of a survey conducted amongst managers of Polish enterprises on their attitude towards the future. Design/methodology/approach: The questions used in the survey concerned managers understanding of the future, their level of optimism, the number and impact of unexpected events (surprises), the effects of uncertainty, the possibilities of influencing the future, the planning and prediction horizons, and the frequency of discussions about risk in their work. Findings: The presented research results were aimed at identifying general attitudes and opinions of managers. At the beginning of the article the notion of attitude towards the future is discussed. In the next part of the article, the goal and subject of the research are presented, followed by the questions to the managers and the statistics of the responses given. In the analysis of the results, attention is drawn to the existing connections between the examined features, in particular the relationship between age and seniority of the respondents and their perception of opportunities and threats. Research limitations/implications: Measuring attitudes towards the future is a complex task. The questions only partially describe this complexity. It seems, however, that the sufficiently large sample on which the research was carried out makes the distribution of answers to the questions quite interesting. Originality/value: The regularities presented in the article can be used in the design of further research on the perception of opportunities and threats and they are important in the decision-making process and planning within organizations.
