With organizational environments becoming increasingly unstable,
uncertain and equivocal, the concept of resilience has become
increasingly significant for management studies and practice.
Resilience connotes organizational, team and individual capacities
to absorb external shocks and to learn from them, while
simultaneously preparing for and responding to external jolts. This
book pinpoints the essential aspects of managerial and
organizational resilience and offers insights that stimulate
critical thinking. As the concept of resilience is essentially made
up of contrasting forces, the volume presents some innovative
synthetic interpretation that allows a deeper comprehension of the
phenomenon and provides managers and policy makers with a solid
basis for taking their decisions. This book provides an accessible
yet rigorous systematization of individual resilience, team
resilience and organizational resilience. Rich with real-life
concept illustrations and containing practice-oriented tools,
reflection questions and exercises, it shows how resilience can be
cultivated across levels of organizational aggregation:
individuals, teams, organizations and communities. The authors
distinguish individual and collective resilience from related
constructs and shed light on the boundaries of resilience and its
potential implications for management practice. Elgar Introduction
to Theories of Organizational Resilience will serve as a key
resource for graduate students and advanced undergraduate students
as well as academics and practitioners who are interested in
deepening their understanding of resilience.
