Abstract

The ability to respond in a timely and effective manner to unexpected changes in the environment of enterprises has become a prerequisite for successful coping with the corona crisis period as well as the significant increase in the prices of production inputs in recent years. This ability is referred to as business agility. The aim of this paper is to present partial results of primary research in which it was investigated how the term of enterprise agility is perceived by managers of Slovak enterprises and whether they are familiar with this concept and its meaning.
