    Dear members of the OMT community:

    We are pleased to announce the publication of a special issue on business agility co-edited by Girod, Birkinshaw and Prange in the latest California Management Review (vol. 65/4).

    The six primary-research based articles advance the theoretical understanding and the practice of business agility, that is, the capability of organizations, teams and individuals to adapt to changing external circumstances, and even to shape their environment to their advantage. The articles bring answers and new tools for conceptualizing and enhancing agility at the strategic, organizational and individual levels and by exploring the links between those different levels. 

    In the opening article (Girod, Birkinshaw and Prange), scholars get an overview of where the field stands and where the six papers contribute. 

    The special issue helps researchers to identify further opportunities for continuing to advance our understanding of this essential capability for future proofing businesses. All articles contain useful insights for classroom students and executive participants. 

    We look forward to receiving your thoughts and comments.

    Best regards

    Prof. Stéphane JG Girod, IMD

    Prof. Julian Birkinshaw, London Business School

    Prof. Christiane Prange, Caralan Global Institute
