Il concetto di resilienza è fondamentale per il successo dei progetti di innovazione, in quanto si riferisce alla capacità di adattarsi a circostanze variabili e di superare gli ostacoli per raggiungere gli obiettivi di innovazione. Questo studio esplora i fattori determinanti della resilienza nei progetti di innovazione a livello individuale, di team e organizzativo. I risultati mostrano che le aziende con ambienti più innovativi dovrebbero essere più resilienti per rispondere alle avversità e riprendersi rapidamente. È inoltre emerso che il concetto di resilienza e il modo in cui viene coltivato differiscono a ogni livello di analisi. Utilizzando un approccio sistematico di revisione della letteratura, questo studio esamina la relazione tra le fasi dell'innovazione e la resilienza e identifica i fattori determinanti della resilienza nel contesto dell'innovazione, prendendo in considerazione le onde della resilienza. Vengono quindi analizzate le qualità di resilienza, i processi di coping che aiutano a rafforzare tali qualità e le forze motivazionali che spingono le persone a crescere e ad andare avanti dopo un evento dirompente. Da un punto di vista manageriale, il nostro studio suggerisce che i manager devono creare una cultura della resilienza in cui prevalgano l'apprendimento dagli errori, la comunicazione e la motivazione a innovare senza paura di fallire.

Abstract
The concept of resilience is crucial for the success of innovation projects, as it refers to the ability to adapt to changing circumstances and overcome obstacles in order to achieve innovation goals. This study explores the determinants of resilience in innovation projects across the individual, team, and organizational levels. The findings show that companies with more innovative environments should be more resilient to respond to adversity and recover quickly. It also became evident that the concept of resilience and the way in which it is nurtured differs at each of the levels of analysis. Using a systematic literature review approach, this study examines the relationship between the stages of innovation and resilience, and identifies the determinants of resilience in the context of innovation, taking into consideration waves of resilience. Therefore, it is analyzed the resilient qualities, the coping processes that help strengthen those resilience qualities, and the motivational forces that drive people to grow and move forward after a disruptive event. From a managerial perspective, our study suggests that managers should create a culture of resilience where learning from mistakes, communication, and motivation to innovate without fear of failure prevail.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
