Abstract:In order to help managers further understand the mechanism by which strategic corporate social responsibility (SCSR) promotes enterprises to turn crises into opportunities, improve the ability of enterprises to cope with dynamic and complex environments and their management and organizational capabilities, explore the internal impact mechanism of SCSR on organizational resilience and related mediating effect. Based on stakeholder theory, a theoretical model with SCSR, network embeddedness, innovation capability and organizational resilience as variables is constructed, and empirical analysis is conducted using the survey data of 362 technology-based enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta region. The results show that: (1) SCSR has a significant positive impact on organizational resilience, and enterprises that actively perform social responsibility can quickly recover to their original level after encountering a crisis; (2) Network embeddedness and innovation capabilities have a significant impact on SCSR and organizational resilience have significant mediating roles respectively which means enterprises can develop access to innovative resources by fulfilling social responsibilities, enhance their willingness and ability to innovate, thereby enhancing organizational resilience; (3) Network embeddedness and innovation ability have significant chain mediating effects on SCSR and organizational resilience. Therefore, enterprises should abandon the traditional concept of social responsibility, attach importance to and actively perform SCSR, and at the same time attach importance to the establishment of a stable and close social network and innovation capabilities.
