Abstract

CoVID-19 epidemic has brought a great impact to China’s railway transportation industry. How to respond quickly to make it return to the original state is a problem worth thinking about. Organizational resilience refers to the prevention before the crisis and the rapid response after the crisis to restore the original state level and seek opportunities for organizational development. Improving the organizational resilience of China’s railway transportation industry to better deal with COVID-19 epidemic is the focus of this paper. The main ways of improvement include maintaining a keen awareness of the environment, improving the organizational resilience of employees, creating an environment of trust, appropriately organizing resource redundancy, and building an organizational structure that combines rigidity and flexibility. Even if coVID-19 is under control, there will be crises like this in the future, so it is important for organizations to improve their resilience, and the rail industry needs to be prepared for a public health crisis.
