Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Agility refers to an organization's ability to respond quickly and effectively to changes in demand. This includes being able to handle changes in volume (i.e. the amount of products or services needed) and variety (i.e. the diversity or complexity of those products or services). Responsiveness and leanness are related concepts but do not specifically encompass both volume and variety considerations like agility does. Relevancy is not a relevant term in this context.
