BAI-Business-Agility-Report-2022

BUSINESS AGILITY AROUND THE WORLD
For the first time since this report started in 2018, multinational organizations -— those
who operate worldwide -— demonstrate higher levels of business agility compared to
organizations operating in any one specific region.
While further research is required to understand why, anecdotal evidence suggests
that in 2022 the investments made to thrive during the global COVID-19 pandemic are
continuing to provide broader benefits.
Other than worldwide organizations, Asian based organizations continue to hold the lead
in average maturity ratings, followed closely by European ones.
