Resilience conceptions in knowledge work in the context of the COVID-19-pandemic – Towards a relational well-being approach?
Resilience in workplaces has been examined as a feature that both maintains the sustainability of employees or organizations. By doing so, the resilience concept illustrates the assumptions and emphasis associated with contemporary well-being conceptions. The premise of this article is that the deepening eco-crisis requires examining the resilience of working life so that the perspective is broadened to the sustainable well-being of both humans and nature. The research material of this study was collected from knowledge workers (n=16) during the pandemic. As a result of the qualitative analysis, three conceptions of resilience that reveal different well-being propositions were recognized: employee-centered, community-centered, and relational-socioecological. This article presents the confluences and the contradictions between the conceptions and opens up avenues for the future administrative research.
