This book explains how to connect the health and viability of important external systems--stakeholders, communities, infrastructure, supply chains, and natural resources--to create innovative, dynamic organizations that will find a way to survive and prosper. As managers grapple with the challenges of the global economy, they are paying increasing attention to their organization's resilience--its capacity to survive, adapt, and flourish in the face of turbulent change. Volatile conditions can quickly overwhelm a business that, on the surface, seems solid. Managers need a new paradigm, one that takes into account the hyper-connected world in which they operate. Rich with case studies of organizations that are designing resilience into the very fabric of their organizations, Resilient by Design offers them a better way to adapt and thrive.
