The current business environment is characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA). Organizations must adapt quickly to thrive. Strategic flexibility analysis (SFA) is a tool to improve adaptability. This conceptual article explores SFA's role in organizational adaptation and performance in VUCA environments. An integrated literature review examined research on SFA, adaptation, and VUCA. A conceptual framework illustrated SFA's impact on adaptation and performance. Analysis and discussion provided insights into SFA's role in VUCA adaptation. We conducted an integrative literature review, and the findings indicate SFA is valuable for improving adaptability and performance in VUCA environments. This study has implications for organizations and human resource development professionals seeking to understand SFA's importance for adaptation and performance improvement in turbulent conditions. Overall, SFA emerges as a critical tool for organizational agility and success in unpredictable business environments defined by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity.
