The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic brings new problems for enterprises that enterprises should carry out management innovation, enhance organizational resilience and gain competitive advantage in the event of major crisis to ensure the sustainable and healthy development.Based on the institutional theory and dynamic capability theory, this paper empirically analyzes the mechanism of management innovation affecting the competitive advantage of enterprises. The results show as follows. Firstly, management innovation can directly improve the competitive advantage of enterprises. Secondly, management innovation can increase the organizational resilience, and organizational resilience can bring speed advantage and cost advantage to enterprises. Therefore, management innovation can indirectly improve competitive advantage by increasing organizational resilience.Thirdly, the positive effect of management innovation on organizational resilience can be strengthened by government support, and the positive effect of management innovation on cost advantage can also be strengthened by government support.
