Research Trends in Resilience Studies in the Field of Public Administration and Implications for Organizational Resilience

Resilience has gained increasing attention in public administration and disaster management. However, most domestic studies focus on individual resilience, with limited research on organizational resilience. This study analyzed 57 resilience-related articles published in Korea between 2014 and 2023, categorizing them by research subjects, methodologies, key variables, and measurement tools. Findings indicate that research is largely quantitative and centered on individual resilience, particularly among police and maritime police officers, while studies on organizational resilience remain scarce. To address this gap, this study highlights the need for expanding organizational resilience research and incorporating qualitative approaches. It also proposes practical strategies such as leadership development, organizational culture improvement, and crisis management training. These findings provide a foundation for strengthening organizational resilience in the public sector and enhancing crisis response capabilities.
