SHAPING OF ORGANIZATIONAL RESILIENCE IN AN UNSTABLE WORLD: POSSIBILITY OR NECESSITY?
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 2
Abstract
Increased complexity of economic, social and technological systems cause that crises, uncertainty and risk have become an integral part of modern world. Undoubtedly, today’s organizations face the necessity of dealing with a growing number of various risk factors-generators: disasters, sudden bankruptcies of key participants of supply chain, loss of reputation, highly innovative products/technologies entering the market or risk resulting from introducing new legal regulations (Gorzeń-Mitka, 2015). Thus, U.Beck’s statement that the 21st century can be described as the century of risk seems right (Beck, 2009).
