<< Background >>The COVID19 pandemic showed that resilience is key to tackle unpredictable negative events. Europe enterprises are trying to bounce back from the negative impacts caused by the multiple lockdowns, confinement restrictions, loss of productivity, just to name a few factors. To survive this economic, health and social crisis, enterprises must display organisational resilience, supported by adaptive management systems. With the rise of global warming, the probability of another pandemic, major migration patterns (and others), it’s a case of knowing how to deal with the next crisis (not IF there will be a next crisis). Nevertheless, organisations face adversities daily and the way they respond to such adversities can make the organisation fragile (if acting rigidly) or flexible (if acting through a set of skills that promote the efficiency and growth of the organisation) (Sutcliffe & Vogus, 2003).Organisational resilience is the ability of organisations to face adversity in such a way that generates a response that allows the bouncing back and activation of coping mechanisms, the achievement of a healthy/positive adaptation, plus the development of new capabilities and the expansion of skills that allow the exploration of opportunities and the construction of skills to deal with future adversities (Coutu, 2002). This is achieved by two components: a) the individual resilience of the organisation workforce (when used collectively) and b) the systemic resilience of the organization processes (system capacity) (Irigaray, Paiva, & Goldschmidt, 2017).Resilient organisations have common traits: they exhibit excess/redundant capacity, flexibility, reliability, trustworthiness, respect and robustness (Denhardt & Denhardt, 2010, p. 338).Enterprises face the negative impacts of COVID19 restrictions, decreased revenues, liquidity problems, temporary or permanent lay-off solutions and overall survival possibility.<< Objectives >>The FENIX project aims to contribute to fostering the resilience of European enterprises and their workers, through the development of an innovative gamified training experience, a guideline to support the implementation of systemic Resilience practices within enterprises and an online crash course on Adaptative Management. These results will be built upon the Organizational Resilience and Adaptive Management (ORAM) Framework and will be enriched by a booklet developed to foment XXI century pedagogical approaches to training.FENIX objectives are:+to contribute to enterprises resilience in face of adversity, thus fostering the strength of European organisations;+to promote a lifelong learning approach to training with European enterprises from all sectors;+to stimulate the development of training approaches that are learner-centred (Learning Outcomes, gamified experiences, mlearning flexible pathways);+to support European enterprises in the implementation of systemic resilience practices;+to foster a culture of adaptive management with European enterprises.<< Implementation >>The project specific activities that will lead to the achievement of the project objectives and delivery of the planned results are:+WP2-2: ORAM Framework developmentThis activity is key to develop the path to follow when implementing strategies to increase organizational resilience in enterprises+WP3-12: Gamification pilotsThis activity will provide the opportunity to test the gamified training experience for workers at all levels and enable partners to make the necessary reengineering of the products. The course pilots will take place in Spain, Greece and Romania. +WP3-25: mLearning crash course pilotsThis activity will allow for the testing of the mLearning crash course for workers on management level on Adaptative management. The course pilots will take place in Spain, Greece and Romania.+WP4-8: Stakeholder consultationThis activity is key to ensure the guideline meets the real needs and pains of enterprises and that each country own context is taken into consideration+5-10.6: Printing and online publishingThis activity will allow the key stakeholders in the education and training sector to benefit from the consortium experience regarding the pedagogical approaches used in the project+ME1-M3 - The Organizational Resilience and Adaptive Management SymposiumsThese activities will have a multiplication effect of the project results and outcomes across the EU. The MEs will contribute to the potentiality of the exploitation and sustainability of the project results.Transversal Activities:+Project management, quality & evaluationThis is an ongoing activity and will guarantee high quality of project results, complemented by an external and internal evaluation model, assuring participants and other stakeholders participate in the evaluation moments of the project.+Communication and project promotionThis ongoing activity will guarantee the maximum impact of project results, allowing partners to communicate the project results and activities in a harmonized manner, to the maximum number of stakeholders, contributing to the future exploitation of project results. The main results under this scope are the project logo, graphic identity manual, teaser for social media, social media (Twitter & LinkedIn), templates for presentations and documents, newsletters, press releases, website, Booklet on training pedagogical approaches to Resilience and Adaptive Management and the exploitation strategy at the end of the project.+Peer-review stagesPlanned throughout the project to ensure the high quality of all project results. +Translations and adaptation to national contextsAll results (with the exception of the Booklet on training pedagogical approaches to Resilience and Adaptive Management) will be translated to Spanish, Greek and Romanian and adapted to national contexts as well<< Results >>The FENIX project is organised in 5 Work Packages (WPs) listed below with their main working outputs and main results:WP1: Project Management, Quality & Evaluation (led by UIB): Project management, quality & evaluation handbook; Financial reports; Action Plans; Project management, quality & evaluation reports - Interim Report (IR) and Final Report (FR).WP2: Organisational Resilience and Adaptive Management (ORAM) Framework (led by ITC): with 2 complementary branches: 1) workforce branch:focused on skills acquisition by individuals where LOs, aims and objectives to the gamified training will be defined and 2) organizational branch: focused on the organizational level, where LOs, aims and objectives to the adaptative management crash course will be developed plus the framework to the guideline with case studies of Systemic Resilience Practices, Leadership models, processes and products systemic resilience approaches, etc.WP3: Gamified training for workforce skilling on Resilience Competency & Adaptive management crash course (led by ISQe): a)Gamified training for workforce skilling on Resilience Competency; and b)Adaptive management crash course.WP4: Guideline for the implementation of Systemic Resilience practices within enterprisesWP5: Communication and project promotion - led by IEKEP+ 3 logos proposals+Communication and project promotion strategy+Graphic identity manual+ .word document template+ .ppt presentation template+ 1 project teaser for social media+Press Releases (at the beginning and at the end of the project)+Newsletters (4)+FENIX website+FENIX Social Media (LinkedIn and Twitter, fed by all partners)+Communication and project promotion reports to WP leader (annual)+Exploitation Strategy (at the end of the project)+Booklet on training pedagogical approaches to Resilience and Adaptive Management - digital and online (EN) - this booklet will provide scientific articles regarding pedagogical and methodological approaches featured in the project activities, or others that make sense in the digital/eLearning thematic and/or ToT and/or mentorships that will benefit education and training organisations/departmentsE1 - The Organizational Resilience and Adaptive Management Symposium (GR) - organised by IEKEPE2 - The Organizational Resilience and Adaptive Management Symposium (RO) - organised by HLXE3 - The Organizational Resilience and Adaptive Management Symposium (ES) - organised by UIB supported by ITCEs will provide an interface to foster greater exploitation potential of the project results as well as contributing to the project sustainability
