Beschreibung
Our world is becoming ever more complex. Among the geopolitical and macroeconomic issues currently facing mankind, with serious ramifications for our future, are digitalization and technology, climate change, and globalization. Political upheaval, wars, natural disasters, economic recessions, and pandemics, have all had massive negative impacts on our society. In this new world, various governmental and organizational decisionmakers ¿ including managers, international agencies, NGOs, political leaders, economists, science & technology innovators, and medical professionals ¿ must all learn to anticipate and deal with these emergent risks, the integration of which, along with the management of ¿black swan¿ events, has assumed paramount importance. This is the huge challenge now facing us.

This book, aimed at both academics and practitioners, shows how a framework for resilience can be created to help modern organizations to not only survive but to thrive. The author considers some of the organizations and bodies that can be said to be highly resilient and examines how ¿Resilience Thinking¿ affects different disciplines and environments. He addresses the question of how resilience works and how it is applied in practice. The relationship between resilience and other knowledge areas such as complexity theory, strategy, and risk management ¿ from both top-down and bottom-up perspectives ¿ is examined. Situations are identified where there is a particular need for resilience, and an overview of the best ways of implementing a resilience process is offered.
