摘要:This study examined the relationship between ambidexterity and organizational resilience among telecommunication firms in Port Harcourt. Cross sectional research design was adopted in studying the four selected telecommunication firms. Krejcie and Morgan table of population and sample size determination was used to arrive at the number of respondents engaged for this study. From the field survey, we retrieved and analyzed twenty-four (24) sets of questionnaires using Spearman’s Rank order correlation coefficient to determine the relationship existing between the variables. The findings revealed that the dimensions of ambidexterity namely; leadership based characteristics, organizational designs and dynamic capabilities exhibited significant relationship with organizational resilience. We then concluded that organizations that are ambidextrous in their leadership, structures/designs and in the utilization of dynamic capabilities possessed are resilient. This gave rise to our recommendation that organizations operating in this era of stiff competition should adopt exploitative and explorative strategies so as to effectively utilize their current competencies as well as being strategically positioned to take advantage of opportunities in the business environment in order to remain competitive and resilient.
