Resilient organizations and academic institutions have been identified as contributing immensely to resilient communities. The majority of organizations showing preparedness to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 have deployed an efficient organizational resilience framework. Yet, there is little research on organizational resilience, and the conceptualization of resilience as a complex variable has not been achieved. Focusing on the higher education sector in the UAE during the COVID-19 pandemic, the current study aims to contribute to this promising research area by exploring and expanding a theoretical model on organizational capabilities that constitute organizational resilience. A qualitative phenomenological research design was utilized, where a total of 13 executives from reputable universities were interviewed, followed by a thematic analysis of the data. Findings provided deep insight into the status of universities in the UAE that are currently in the early adaptation stage of the current crisis. Organizational resilience was conceptualized as a process that comprises three successive stages (anticipation, coping, and adaptation), five key antecedents (knowledge, resources availability, social resources, power relationships, and innovative culture), and two main moderators (crisis leadership traits and employee resilience). Important findings were also identified on the needed crisis leadership styles. Recommendations for practice and research are discussed.

Higher education can be considered an industry comprised of mobile students attending institutions worldwide (Findlay et al. in Int Migr 55(3):139-155, 2017). The global pandemic, COVID-19, has significantly impacted the mobility of these students. Higher education institutions (HEIs) have attracted students using international student recruiters, various marketing materials, websites, and educational agents (de Wit in Int High Educ 59:13-14, 2015). When COVID-19 began to unfold around the globe the disease impacted many sectors of the economy, but the impact of disease on the higher education industry is not well documented. The purpose of this study is to explore how higher education institutional student recruitment staff responded to the COVID-19 pandemic. This study explores the perspectives of international student recruitment staff in eight small to medium-sized institutions in Canada to understand the impact of the pandemic on their practice and to generate insights for policymakers to consider when planning the future of international student recruitment (ISR). The study found that these recruiters perceived their size to be a disadvantage and that the pandemic highlighted the inequities within higher education. Furthermore, recruiters feared the competitive position of small to medium-sized institutions is potentially deteriorating with implications on policy, resources, and internal relationships within HEIs.
高等教育可被视为一个由在世界各地院校就读的流动学生组成的产业(Findlay et al. in Int Migr 55(3):139-155, 2017)。全球大流行病 COVID-19 极大地影响了这些学生的流动性。高等教育机构(HEIs)利用国际学生招生人员、各种营销材料、网站和教育中介吸引学生(de Wit in Int High Educ 59:13-14,2015)。当 COVID-19 开始在全球蔓延时,疾病影响了许多经济部门,但疾病对高等教育行业的影响却没有得到很好的记录。本研究旨在探讨高等教育机构的招生人员如何应对 COVID-19 大流行。本研究探讨了加拿大八所中小型院校的国际学生招生人员的观点,以了解大流行病对其工作的影响,并为政策制定者在规划国际学生招生(ISR)的未来时提供启示。研究发现,这些招生人员认为他们的规模是一个不利因素,而且大流行病凸显了高等教育中的不平等。此外,招生人员担心中小型院校的竞争地位可能会恶化,从而对政策、资源和高等院校内部关系产生影响。
