Adaptability and resilience are important to build a sustainable solution that aids the organization to run long term. Ecological leadership offers to view Organization as a living organism, expanding its scope beyond its visible identity of being a legal entity with artificial personality. It also empowers the employees with green practices allowing the organization to grow in all avenues and help it to use its resources to the optimum level and enhance productivity.

Ecological leadership connects the organization to the social and natural surroundings recognizing the need of interconnectedness necessary to sustain and survive. It fosters a culture of collaboration, adaptability and shared responsibility by promoting diversity and inclusion for optimum use of resources at the rate in which ecosystem can survive. This does not merely pose the organization as an economic actor but also position it to be an adaptive and socially conscious entity providing it an upper hand to win in the corporate race. This paper explores the ways in which ecological leadership contributes in building a resilient workforce with the inbuild capability of preparedness in combating unprecedented circumstances.
