The central role of flexibility is to permit the survival and the success of the organizations in a turbulent circumstance, which is characteristic to the new world tendencies. The more flexible the organization becomes, the better it responds to the change. Firms, which are flexible, facilitate creativity, innovations and speed, all these being included into the organizational and coordination processes.

Flexibility and promptitude are the qualities of the organizational success and the need to be flexible is an imperative of competition.
