Lack of Measurement Tools
The paper doesn't offer specific, measurable metrics or tools for assessing the level of organizational agility within a company.

Explicación de la calificación

This is a literature review-based conceptual paper, which makes a valuable contribution by clarifying the concept of organizational agility and highlighting the importance of management's role. However, the absence of empirical validation and the limited industry focus restrict its generalizability and practical implications. Thus, a rating of 3 is considered appropriate.
