Capturing firm resilience: An assessment of quantitative approaches
Project Description
In today’s increasingly globalised and interconnected economy, understanding and measuring the resilience of firms to internal and external shocks and periods of crisis has become of critical importance. While resilience has become a central concept within management, economics, and organisational research, existing scholarship remains divided on its precise definition and, more importantly, on how it can be systematically quantified. The primary objective is therefore the critical assessment of existing quantitative frameworks designed to capture firm resilience and the evaluation of how these measures compare to one another. In addition, the research examines the relationship between resilience measures and broader indicators of firm performance. Through the combination of quantitative methodologies with corporate performance analysis, it seeks to advance a more precise understanding of how firms respond to structural change and external shocks.
