In the context of the external disruption presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, we investigate (1) how individual-level resilience and inter-functional coordination relate to organizational resilience and (2) the link between organizational resilience and firm performance. We view organizational resilience as a resource-based capability and draw on insights regarding psychological capital and relational resources to inform our hypotheses. Our hypotheses are tested with a time-lagged, multi-level study of young technology ventures. The results show that when such firms are resilient, they tend to perform significantly better in a crisis. Further, organizational resilience is positively influenced by the individual resilience of top management team members, as well as inter-functional coordination. We discuss implications for theory and practice and suggest avenues for research on resilience in entrepreneurship.

在 COVID-19 大流行带来的外部破坏的背景下，我们研究了 (1) 个人层面的弹性和跨职能协调与组织弹性的关系，以及 (2) 组织弹性与公司绩效之间的联系。我们将组织弹性视为一种基于资源的能力，并利用有关心理资本和关系资源的见解来为我们的假设提供信息。我们的假设通过对年轻技术企业的时滞、多层次研究进行检验。结果表明，当这些公司具有弹性时，它们在危机中的表现往往会明显更好。此外，组织弹性受到高层管理团队成员的个人弹性以及跨职能协调的积极影响。
