    Research output: Book/ReportBook - authored

    Abstract

    The book explores how the construct of organisational agility has evolved over the past twenty years. It begins by describing how the agile paradigm was identified in the late 1980s. Then the findings of a major study into the characteristics of agile organisations, conducted by a team led by the author, will be described and cross-referenced with recent studies. The book concludes with a review of the importance of agility as an organizational capability, gives guidance as to how organizational agility can be developed and considers the implications for top management teams, functional and project managers, change agents and academic researchers.
