What is Organizational Agility?

An organization's ability to sense changes in its environment, make decisions quickly, and reconfigure resources, processes, and structures fast enough to capture opportunities or respond to threats before competitors do.

Why it matters in hiring

Organizational Agility comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
