“Prepared to Face the Unexpected”: Dynamic Enterprises in Italy as a Model of Resilience
Get PDFBusinesses that demonstrate organizational flexibility, characterized by dynamic problem-solving skills, in-house production processes, and a robust human capital, appear to be successful and resilient in times of crisis. Drawing on my fieldwork in medium-sized manufacturing companies in Emilia, Northern Italy, from June to November 2021, I investigate ideas and characteristics that shed light on good practices, key ingredients of the success of such companies, and possible future models of resilience. I employ participant observation and provide evidence taken from conversations or episodes observed, especially in one of the companies.

Analysen peger på, at fællesskabelse kan gribes som et fænomen drevet af intensivering af gensidigt enactment og materielle og narrative tråde til verden udenfor og tidligere fællesskaber. På baggrund af denne indsigt formulerer artiklen opmærksomheder, som er vigtige for, hvordan man kan understøtte fællesskabelse i praksis. Disse omfatter aktivitet, rum, stemninger, værtsskab og fælles fortællinger
