Towards Resilient Organizations and Societies, 1st ed. 2022 A Cross-Sectoral and Multi-Disciplinary Perspective Public Sector Organizations Series

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateurs : Pinheiro Rómulo, Frigotto Maria Laura, Young Mitchell

Couverture de l’ouvrage Towards Resilient Organizations and Societies

This open access book brings together scholars in the fields of management, public policy, regional studies, and organization theory around the concept of resilience. The aim is to provide a more holistic understanding of the complex phenomenon of resilience from a multi-sectorial, cross-national, and multidisciplinary perspective. The book facilitates a conversation across diverse disciplinary specializations and empirical domains. The authors contribute both to theory testing and theory development and provide key empirical insights useful for societies, organizations, and individuals experiencing disruptive pressures, not least in the context of a post-COVID-19 world. Diverse chapters are held together by a clear organization of the volume across levels of analysis (resilience in organizations and societies) and by an original perspective on resilience derived from an extended review, by the editors, of the existing literature and knowledge gaps, according to which each of the individual chapter contributions is positioned and connected to.
