Commenting on resilience beyond the economic aspect amidst the Covid-19 outbreak in Singapore, SMU Behavioural Sciences Institute Director and Professor of Psychology David Chan said that collectively, the resilience of a people and society can make or break the ability of leaders and organisations to deal effectively with challenges such as the Covid-19 pandemic. He added that the tricky thing about resilience is that it can change over time, and that is why one can never take it for granted. SMU Associate Professor of Law Eugene Tan pointed out the current pandemic is a potent combination of life and death concerns, as well as economic ones, making resilience more complicated and uncertain.
