The effect of strategic agility on organizational ambidexterity: A survey study of the opinions of a sample of employees in private universities

Abstract

The current research aims to identify the relationship between strategic agility and organizational dexterity by demonstrating the nature of the correlation between the two variables and determining the extent of the influence of the independent variable (strategic agility) on the dependent variable (organizational ambidexterity), at the aggregate level and at the sub-dimension level. The research problem was represented by the weak embodiment of strategic agility, as well as the lack of knowledge of its impact on organizational ambidexterity in private universities in Baghdad. The research adopted the descriptive-analytical approach, and the questionnaire was the primary tool for data collection. The sample size reached (178) respondents from private university employees. A number of statistical methods were used to extract results. One of the most prominent findings of the research was the existence of a statistically significant influence relationship between strategic agility and organizational dexterity at the aggregate level and at the sub-dimension level.
