ABSTRACT: Crises are now parts of daily experience, peoples, organizations, and
destinations experience crises. Most times, it occurs without realizing it, and
even when people take note, it is the negative spillovers that are often
emphasized more than the positive spillovers. Little do people realize that the
crisis they are in today prepares them for tomorrow’s strength. Unfortunately,
there is little or no literature on the positive spillovers of crises. This
study aims to fill the literature on the positive spillover of crises on
peoples, organizations, and destinations
using a qualitative data triangulation, comprising face-to-face interviews
and textual data. The study employed spillover effect and resilience theories to justify the arguments. Findings from
stage 1 analysis revealed three themes, and stage 2 analyzes supported
the findings. Most times, survivors of crises end up becoming resilient after
an experience. This study discussed managerial and practical implications, as
well as limitations and future studies.
