Towards a unified conceptualisation of IS agility
Haibo Yang, Pedro A. Antunes, Mary Tate · 2016
Information system (IS) agility has been consistently ranked high by executives in various surveys conducted in the past decade. However, the concept of agility lacks clarity and specification, which can hinder our efforts accumulating knowledge and comparing studies. Based on a comprehensive conceptualisation, we compare agility with commonly confused concepts such as flexibility, evaluate four key capabilities of agility, and identify four categories of agility relevant to IS research.
