Type of resilience tool | Explanation | Knowledge base |
1. Measurement tools | Ways to analyse, measure and monitor the resilience of organisations in their operating environment | “Principles of resilience” (see table 2) |
2. Improvement tools | Tools and methods to improve an organisation’s resilience vis-à-vis the environment | “Stages of resilience” (see table 3) |
3. Prediction tools | Techniques to model and predict the short- and long-term effects of change and decisions on risk | Provide basis and support for “sacrifice decisions”* (see Morel et al28) |
*New research is needed to understand the judgement process that underpins “sacrificing” in organisations, especially from the perspective of resilient organisations. Morel et al28 help begin this discourse.
