Abstract: The present day organisational needs are more centred on exploring positive behavioural approaches and psychological capacities ensuring sustained high performance, a resilient workforce, and new ideas for engagement. This has paved the way for maximising the social and intellectual potential of the workforce through strategic behavioural concepts and techniques. The creative synergy of capitalising on behavioural potentials helps a company thrive amidst several adversities and become resilient. Based on the urge to develop a new substantial way to maximise organisational resilience, the present study conceptualises organisational resilience with cherishing. Theoretical implications and future research possibilities of the paper are discussed.

Keywords: organisational resilience; cherishing; personal resilience; workplace.
