Abstract

This study adopts the A-share manufacturing listed enterprises in China’s Shanghai and Shenzhen cities during 2010-2020 as the research object and uses empirical research methods to test 138 sample companies and 1,103 valid observation data in order to explore the relationships among strategic social responsibility, organizational resilience, and corporate performance. The results of this study show that strategic social responsibility fulfillment has a significant positive effect on organizational resilience and corporate performance, and organizational resilience has a partial mediating effect on corporate performance. This paper discusses organizational resilience from the perspective of stakeholders and dynamic capability theory, which is of practical significance for improving corporate performance.
