Abstract
The importance of organizational agility and organizational learning abilities have formed part of major discussions among academicians and practitioners. However, these discussions have usually ignored the Small and Medium Enterprises (smes). This study therefore examined the effects of organizational agility on organizational learning ability among SMES in the Kumasi metropolis. The study adopted the explanatory design and quantitative research approach to gather and analyse data from 292 respondents. The study used a questionnaire to gather the data for this study. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data for the study. The results indicated that the organizational agility strategies associated with the small and medium enterprises in the Kumasi metropolis are high and effective. The findings further show that there is a high level of effectiveness associated with the implementation of such strategies. Furthermore, the study found a mixed relationship between the various categories of organizational agility factors and the organizational learning ability of the smes considered. The study concludes by making recommendations for practices and policy.
