ABSTRACT

Against the backdrop of a complex and changing global economic environment, enhancing corporate resilience has become a focus of attention in both academia and practice. The study of enterprise resilience is mainly carried out from the perspectives of adaptive matching and interactive integration, and explores the influence of internal factors (e.g., employee traits, leadership characteristics, organizational structure) and external factors (e.g., institutional environment, social responsibility) on the resilience of enterprises. Meanwhile, green transformation, as a core path to achieve the "dual-carbon" goal, promotes sustainable development of enterprises through green technological innovation, but there is no consensus on its impact on corporate resilience. Some studies suggest that green transformation may have a negative effect on business resilience due to cost pressure at the initial stage, while others point out that it can enhance long-term resilience through technological upgrading and brand value-adding. At present, there is less literature that directly explores the relationship between green transformation and firm resilience, and the intrinsic mechanism between the two still needs further research. Through the literature review, this paper summarizes the current status and divergence of related studies, and provides theoretical references for the future exploration of how green transformation affects corporate resilience.
