Organizational resilience is increasingly seen as important to entrepreneurial firms to not only survive, but thrive in an uncertain world of global environmental change, rapid technological advances, economic uncertainty and changing socio-political conditions. However, the nature of the relationship between organizational resilience and entrepreneurship remains less well developed than other areas of resilience scholarship. This ebook with six papers contributes to a better understanding of how organizational resilience issues affect entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial firms is timely. The first paper offers a literature review on the relationship between organizational resilience and entrepreneurship. The second paper relates insights from the traditional resilience fields of psychology, ecology and engineering to entrepreneurial resilience, while the third paper examines what it means to be resilient in the face of modern day risks and how firms can develop strategic organizational resilience. The fourth paper takes a personal and insightful look at how one entrepreneur negotiated an arduous business takeover process and in turn developed resilience skills, followed by the fifth paper, which also examines individual entrepreneurship, this time in the retail sector following the 2012 Emilia earthquake in the north of Italy. Paper six investigates the relationship between UK entrepreneurs, their organizations and organizational resilience, taking a multi-level approach. We conclude with a discussion of the limitations of the research contained within this Special Issue to identify opportunities for further research.
