Abstract: | Why do some people bounce back from life's hardships while others despair? HBR senior editor Diane Coutu looks at the nature of individual and organizational resilience, issues that have gained special urgency in light of the recent terrorist attacks, war, and recession. Theories abound about what produces resilience, but three fundamental characteristics seem to set resilient people and companies apart from others. |
