?:abstract
  • Resilience captures firm capability to adjust to and recover from unexpected shocks in the environment Being latent and path-dependent, the manifestation of organizational resilience is hard to be directly measured This article assesses organizational resilience of firms in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic with pre-shock corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance as a predictor that positively influences the level of organizational resilience to the external shock caused by the pandemic We develop three theoretical mechanisms based on stakeholder theory, resource-based theory, reputation perspective and means-end chain theory to explain how CSR fulfillment in the past could help firms maintain stability to adapt to and react flexibly to recover from the crisis We examine the relationship in the context of the systemic shock caused by COVID-19, using a sample of 1597 listed firms in China during the time window from 20 January 2020 to 10 June 2020 We find that companies with higher CSR performance before the shock will experience fewer losses and will take a shorter time to recover from the attack
