How can new-energy vehicle companies use organizational resilience to build business ecological advantages? The role of ecological niche and resource orchestration

This study investigates how new-energy vehicle enterprises generate business ecological advantages to achieve sustainable development. Using 386 new-energy vehicle enterprises as research objects, this study employs structural equation modeling to construct a multiple chain mediation model of organizational resilience, ecological niches, resource orchestration, and business ecological advantages and analyzes the paths among them. The Bootstrap test in SPSS software is used to test the multiple mediators. The study finds that organizational resilience is the key factor driving the generation of business ecological advantages in new-energy vehicle enterprises. Ecological niche plays a complete mediating role between organizational resilience and business ecological advantages. Resource orchestration plays a complete mediating role between organizational resilience and business ecological advantages. Ecological niches and resource orchestration play a chain mediating role between organizational resilience and business ecological advantages. This study provides a new perspective to reveal the source and generation mechanism of new-energy vehicle enterprises' business ecological advantages, and also fills the theoretical gap formed by the lack of research on the mechanism of organizational resilience in the ecological context.
