In 2012, the Project Management Institute (PMI), the world’s largest association for project management professionals, released the study [Pulse of the Profession Detailed Report: Organizational Agility]. The document talks about the importance of organisational agility to overcome a moment of turbulence and volatility in the global market.

The researchers observed that the interviewees (more than a thousand project, program and portfolio managers) defined the concept of organisational agility as:

• Rapid response to strategic opportunities
• Shorter decision, production and review cycles
• Focus on change management
• Customer voice integration
• Focus on risk management
• Interdisciplinary project teams
• Elimination of silos in the organization
• Contingency Planning
• Use of iterative project management practices
• Leveraging technology
