Working Paper
Once successful, most companies fall victim to strategic rigidity. The more the business model is attuned to the existing environment, the harder it is to reform it when conditions change. In response to this renewal challenge, the “agile organization” has been hailed as a way to keep innovating and adapting, allowing firms to evolve and grow, making the “S-curve” of maturity obsolete and building strong adaptive capabilities to foster continuous renewal.
