Society needs to develop the ability to repeat, over and over, forever. (Westley, 2013, p. 3) The elements of this resilient system are a self-organizing approach, the ability to resist disruptions and maintain organizational identity, and a flexibility linked to the continuous growth of learning capacity within the organization (Moore & Westley, 2011). A highly contextually relevant quote from Westley (2013) relating to this resilience covers one of the main bases of organizational capacity for social innovation. Of course, “emergency management” is easier in some cultures than others. Some cultures allow ideas to move freely and rapidly, combining with other ideas in the kind of bricolage necessary for innovation. Studies of resilience at the community, organizational, and individual levels suggest that these same qualities characterize organizations and communities that are resilient to crisis and collapse. The characteristics shared by these organizations and communities are low hierarchy, adequate diversity, an emphasis on learning rather than blame, space for experimentation, and mutual respect. These are all qualities that support overall resilience. If they are taken into consideration, the capacity for social innovation will also increase, creating a virtuous circle which in turn builds the resilience of the entire society. (p.
