Abstract

Bwambale Joram

The global COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted organizations and employees, posing unique challenges to their work lives. This case study focuses on St. Mary's College Kisubi (SMACK) and the University of Kisubi (UniK) in Uganda, exploring how the pandemic has affected their employees' tasks, context, mindset, and daily routines. By analyzing organizational factors such as structure, culture, and technology, as well as employee-level factors like resilience and coping mechanisms, this study identifies key impact categories, contingencies, and coping strategies. The comparative analysis between the two institutions provides insights into effective management practices during and after a pandemic, contributing to academic literature and offering practical implications for organizations aiming to support employee well-being and productivity in crisis situations.
