Abstract:
Resilient leadership has gained
increasing importance in contemporary organizations due to
rising uncertainty, complexity, and continuous change, as it
plays a vital role in fostering a strong organizational
culture that supports employee well-being, adaptability, and
sustained performance. This study examined the impact of
resilient leadership on organizational culture within the
Organization for Talent and Entrepreneurship Development
(OTED) in Kabul, focusing on trust and openness,
communication effectiveness, employee engagement,
adaptability to change, organizational commitment, and
psychological safety. The findings reveal that resilient
leadership has a significant and positive effect on overall
organizational culture, with particularly strong
relationships observed in trust and openness, communication
effectiveness, employee engagement, psychological safety, and
organizational commitment. Additionally, resilient leadership
enhances employees’ adaptability to change and fosters a
supportive environment in which individuals feel safe to
express ideas, learn from mistakes, and contribute beyond
formal job roles. The study concludes that resilient
leadership is a critical strategic capability and recommends
its integration into leadership development initiatives to
strengthen organizational culture, employee engagement, and
long-term organizational effectiveness.
