Resilient strategies and mechanisms of organizations to mitigate the effects caused by the pandemic at the international level

Abstract

Over time, pandemics have considerably affected the world economy and organizations, forcing them to generate changes and adapt. In 2019, a disease originated in Mexico, the infection caused by H1N1, which affected that country and caused illnesses and deaths. The outbreak of this disease also reached countries such as the United States, Spain, and the United Kingdom, among others. Currently, the world is on alert for a new disease growing by leaps and bounds, COVID-19, which causes high risks for organizations and international trade, staff cuts in companies and increases unemployment. Having said the above, it seeks to mitigate these negative impacts through alternatives that allow us to overcome this crisis, either through technological tools or by developing new skills. For this reason, this article aims to describe the resilient strategies and mechanisms that companies have implemented to face the adverse effects caused by the pandemic.
