RESUMO

The aim of this paper is to reflect about the relationship between the Resilience Concept and Jewish Tradition, following the idea that the experiences Jewish people have been exposed to throughout History, which made them suffer from several ways of pressure â such as religious and ethnic harassment, including a programmed Mass Killing â might have influenced their very basic Resilience development as a group of people. From this point of view, it wishes to identify the relationships among Connerâs Resilience Fundamental Characteristics: focus, the ability of being positive, organization, flexibility and pro-action as well a few Jewish basement points and actions that contribute for the group maintenance. After that, it focuses on the effects those relationships may cause in an organizational culture. In order to do that, it elects a small, tiny civil engineering company founded and headed by members of the Jewish Community in Recife. After contextualizing this community, the case-study bases itself on associations among the companyâs leader resilient characteristics or skills and the organizationâs culture, showing situations whereby this resilience worked out to be a surviving and/or equilibrating factor or just helped its development somehow. As a contribution, it intends to offer primary information about Human Resilience to the still needing Theoretical-Methodological Production in this country based on a transdisciplinary way of thinking the cultural dynamics on the important transforming stage so called: organizations
