Abstract

The COVID-19 crisis severely impacted entrepreneurs worldwide, so that policy dispatches like the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor's (GEM) September 2020 special report, Diagnosing COVID-19 Impacts on Entrepreneurship: Exploring Policy Remedies for Recovery, were crucial for governments devising economic policies. Our paper examines how the GEM used institutional storytelling to craft anticipatory resilience, by drawing on the Communication Theory of Resilience and (ante)narrative approaches to anticipatory resilience. Findings demonstrated intersections of the GEM's role of resilience storyteller, as well as how resilience action by entrepreneurs and policymakers was narrated by the GEM. We uncover key tensions within the GEM's positioning as diagnostician and fortuneteller, between the resilient processes of normalizing and pivoting for everyday entrepreneurs, and in the institutionalizing work of policymakers through reacting and prospecting. We end by discussing key implications of our narrative approach to how institutions craft anticipatory resilience in response to global crises.

预见性创业复原力的制度（前）叙事：COVID-19 和全球创业监测

COVID-19 危机对全球创业者造成了严重影响，因此，像《全球创业观察》（GEM）2020 年 9 月特别报告《诊断 COVID-19 对创业的影响》（Diagnosing COVID-19 Impacts on Entrepreneurship）这样的政策报告对各国政府制定经济政策至关重要：探索复苏的政策补救措施》这样的政策报告对于各国政府制定经济政策至关重要。我们的论文借鉴复原力沟通理论（Communication Theory of Resilience）和预期复原力（前）叙事方法（ante），探讨了 GEM 如何利用机构叙事来打造预期复原力。研究结果表明了创业板公司作为复原力故事讲述者的角色，以及创业板公司如何讲述企业家和政策制定者的复原力行动。我们揭示了 GEM 作为诊断者和算命者的定位之间、日常企业家的正常化和转向的复原过程之间，以及决策者通过反应和预测进行的制度化工作之间的关键紧张关系。最后，我们将讨论我们的叙事方法对各机构在应对全球危机时如何打造预见性复原力的重要影响。
