Firm's resilience to supply chain disruptions: Scale development and empirical examination
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the role of supply chain disruption orientation and risk management resources in the development of firm resilience to supply chain disruptions, and find that supply-chain disruption orientation alone alone is not enough for a firm to develop resilience.
