Does absorptive capacity moderate the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and supply chain resilience?

Supply chain resilience (SCR) is often seen as a dynamic capability that enables firms to effectively cope with disruptions and unforeseen events in the business environment. However, empirical research focusing on influencing factors on SCR is still limited. Based on the resource-based view (RBV) a...
