Myriad studies have examined the role of Small and Medium Enterprises’ (SME’s) resilience as a driving force of a country’s economic ecosystem in times of crises. However, what most of these studies neglected was the role of SME’s in reviving economies in underdeveloped countries like Lebanon. The main aim of this study is to postulate the drivers behind the Lebanese entrepreneurial paths of resilience in times of crises. A quantitative research methodology is adopted to explore whether adaptive or absorptive paths of resilience are important for entrepreneurs to pursue. The study showcases the significance of absorptive and adaptive resilience paths along with factors such as adaptability, robustness, redundancy, resourcefulness flexibility and agility. Similarly, variables like the number of employees in firms, payment of salaries, extra fees paid, governmental taxes, and organizational time and source of response are impactful in the context of entrepreneurship resilience in Lebanon in times of crises.

Natural resource economics deals with the supply, demand, and allocation of the earth's natural resources. One main objective of natural resource economics is to better understand the role of natural resources in the economy in order to develop more sustainable methods of managing those resources to ensure their availability for future generations. Resource economists study interactions between economic and natural systems, with the goal of developing a sustainable and efficient economy. Market equilibrium in this case is a condition where a market price is established through competition such that the amount of goods or services sought by buyers is equal to the amount of goods or services produced by sellers. Economic equilibrium is the combination of economic variables (usually price and quantity) toward which normal economic processes, such as supply and demand, drive the economy. The term economic equilibrium can also be applied to any number of variables such as interest rates or aggregate consumption spending. SWOT analysis identifies internal and external factors that are prioritized by experts in the distribution natural resources for equilibrium economic domain through an analytical hierarchy process. The prioritized SWOT factors are used in the formulation of strategies using the TOWS matrix. The results of the study indicate that a no natural capital is the world's stock of natural resources. Some natural capital assets provide people with free goods and services, often called ecosystem services strategy and an isolation strategy that effectively regulates international trade in goods and services to equilibrium global economic is the best strategy.

Organisations need to know how many people and what sort of people they should have to meet the present and future business requirements. This is the function of human resource planning or workforce planning as it is sometimes called, especially in the public sector. Planning for human resources has experienced a chequered history. In the 1960’s and 1970’s it was heralded as a critical tool for business success, as planning to get the right people in the right place at the right time was seen as essential to achieving rapid growth. In the 1980’s and 1990’s planning was viewed as a suitable tool for managing downsizing and redundancies. On the other hand it has been argued that planning is no longer meaningful in an era of rapid discontinuous change where it has been recognized that strategies emerge rather than being precisely planned in advance.
