Agility and ambidexterity in SME : the role of digitization
- The ongoing development and improvements of digital technologies lead to changes on markets and industries. The implementation of new digital approaches has the potential to secure the competitiveness and corporate success. Companies must anticipate these changes and respond to them adequately. As a result, organizations need to be more agile and ambidextrous. For further insights on these organizational requirements an empirical study has been conducted in conjunction with a literature review. The study examined whether digitization leads to an improvement in agility and ambidexterity, and thus to a better firm performance. This revealed drivers and inhibiting factors that have an influence on the potentials of agility and ambidexterity. Finally, a conceptual model has been developed to enable future quantitative-based research.
