This instrumental case study explored the management and governance approaches for university crisis management and the factors that contribute to successful institutional adaptation. I conducted 22 semi-structured interviews with individuals involved in NYU Shanghai's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as document analysis on meeting notes from the crisis task force and NYU Shanghai's archive of communications regarding COVID-19. The study revealed that NYU Shanghai's decentralized management approach for the crisis response was bolstered by specific decision-making techniques, structural advantages from the university's form as a joint Sino-U.S. institution, and unique organizational characteristics of the university. These factors contributed to an effective crisis response despite the challenging circumstances. The findings show that adaptation is centralized in universities. During NYU Shanghai's response to the pandemic, adaptation was driven centrally, by the leadership, but disseminated throughout the institution in a decentralized way. An effectively decentralized management approach can be enabled through organizational culture. In this case, institutional experiences and traits contributed to an effective decentralized response by creating an environment where change is accepted and individuals are accountable to the collective mission. This study also reveals that interdependence can be an asset in crisis. NYU Shanghai's external stakeholders proved instrumental in its crisis response. While NYU Shanghai was effective in much of its operational capacities during the crisis, I received mixed responses regarding curricular and pedagogical matters, a result of limited consultation with and involvement of faculty in the decision-making process. Engaging faculty directly in strategy and planning would allow the crisis response to address academic issues more effectively.
