This article endeavours to create a conceptual approach of Resilience Management(RM). RM is a novel and promising branch of Project Management science. For this article, RM is perceived as the union class="plainlinks">[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_management Risk Management (RM) and Adaptive Management (AM). Resilience Management is a flexible and systematic approach that deals disruptions caused by the drifting environment and project complexity. Has as basic components the preparation, resistance, recoverability and learning - implementing new solutions (iterative procedure). Basically, incorporates the 'plan and predict' approach of RM, with the 'monitor and react' approach that comes from the field of AM.[1].

At first, an explanation of what the word Resilience will be introduced, then the virtues and characteristics which are needed for a Project Manager and Project Team to be resilient, continuing with what is needed for a Project to be resilient and lastly will be introduced a conceptual approach of Resilience Management.

Those process are built to help the project remain on track and meet its goal. PRM should be part of the planning process, not only focus in reactive mechanisms, to figure out risks that may occur in the project and have not yet been revealed.[2]. However, current PRM practices are often described as time-consuming and inflexible under high-uncertainty conditions.[3]. The common practises of risk management do not provide the capacity to recover from the negative consequences of any disruptions, rather focus on creating proactive mechanisms. In order to overcome these limitations, recent studies support the integration of resilience into project management. Such management calls for awareness of projects surroundings and to adapt for recovering once faces with disruptions.[4].

The inherent feasibility of a project is encapsulated by the concept of resilience. This kind of management allows the project to endure all the adversities and impediments that disrupt the smooth functioning of the project. In other words, resilience is concerned with how processes, methods, organizational structure, etc. evolve and realign to face disruptive events. This is achieved through continuous monitoring of the project complexity and uncertainty levels during the project life-cycle.[5] Building for adaptation and evolution means to built for sustainability.
