Introduction

Organisational Resilience is the ability to anticipate, avoid, protect, withstand, mitigate, respond and recover from the effects of change or adversity whether natural or man-made. It is the capacity of an organisation to plan for and adapt to change, or disruption.

This course explores these and other concepts of resilience to understand key mechanisms that organisations should develop to best cope with ongoing and continuous change and to recover from adversity. Resilient organisations are forward thinking with proactive personnel, productive businesses and learning environments, they are able to foresee relevant scenarios that may have damaging effects on the organisation’s operations.
