Agile Management and Agile Organization Concept: A Bibliometric Analysis and Future Directions

Abstract

This study aims to examine the trends and research gaps in the literature by addressing the concepts of agile management and agile organization from a bibliometric perspective. 867 articles in the Web of Science database between 1997 and 2024 were analyzed using VOSviewer software. The study examined the historical development of agile management and organization, prominent themes, keywords and scientific contributions. The findings show that agile has found application in a wide range of fields, especially in software development and project management. In particular, co-authorship, citation and bibliographic match analyses revealed scientific collaboration networks and thematic concentrations in the literature. According to the keyword analysis, agile project management and organizational change are among the most studied topics. The study systematically assesses the existing literature in the field of agile management and organization, while suggesting new directions for future research. It is also emphasized that topics such as hybrid management models and the integration of agile methods into other disciplines should be further explored. In this context, the study aims to fill the gaps in the literature and contribute to strategic decision-making processes.
