Organizational Resilience Topical Requirement

Organizational Resilience Topical Requirement

Organizational resilience is defined by the International Organization for Standardization as the “ability of an organization to absorb and adapt in a changing environment” (ISO 22316:2017). While this definition establishes a clear aspiration, in practice, organizations vary widely in how they anticipate, respond to, adapt to, and recover from change and disruption. Because organizational resilience spans strategic, operational, technological, human, social, and financial dimensions, some organizations can absorb change effectively, whereas others struggle to do so or may choose different approaches in the face of uncertainty.
