ABSTRACT
In the VUCA era, organizational resilience has become an important research topic in the management field. As the helmsman of an organization, the impact of leaders’ personal mentality on organizational resilience cannot be ignored. Based on the survey data from 163 enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta region of China, this paper constructs and tests the relationship between leadership mindsets and organizational resilience. The results show that there is a positive correlation between leadership mindsets and organizational resilience. Cultural norms play a mediating role; innovative cultural norms play a mediating role between leaders’ growth mindset and organizational resilience, and collaborative cultural norms play a mediating role between leaders’ specified mindset and organizational resilience. In addition, supportive human resource practice plays a moderating role in the relationship between leadership mindsets and cultural norms. The research extends the research of leadership mindsets to the improvement of organizational resilience, and enhances the understanding and application of cultural norms and supportive human resources practices, providing scientific suggestions for the sustainable development of organizations.
