Organizations have confronted any changes or unexpected events from the internal and external environment that pressure and drive them to adapt for survival. Resilience describes the capability of individuals or organizations to bounce back, adapt and recover from unpredictable events. The literature reviews suggest that mindfulness and resilience are inextricably connected. Both resilience and mindfulness have some characteristics about responding to challenging occurrences. The process of resilience and mindfulness can be adapted, changed, developed, encouraged, learned and strengthened. This conceptual paper proposes a relationship between mindfulness and resilience at a cross-level. The major contribution of the paper is the expansion of thought and usage of High Reliability Organizations (HROs) and Psychological Capital (PsyCap) which enhance organizational resilience to understand how business especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will be able to overcome the difficult situations effectively and doing sustainable business.
