A method, system, and computer program product for improving an organization's business adaptability is provided. In one embodiment, a taxonomy is created wherein the taxonomy comprises a hierarchical list of taxonomy indicators that captures organizational elements that can be used to measure an organization's responsiveness to change and wherein the taxonomy indicators are industry specific. A set of weights associated with the elements of the taxonomy, indicating a relevant contribution of each element to an overall adaptability of an organization, are assigned. The weights are industry specific. An enterprise profile for the organization is determined and an adaptability result of the organization is calculated from the weights, taxonomy, and enterprise profile. The adaptability result provides a quantitative assessment of the organization's adaptability. Recommendations for improving the adaptability of the organization are then determined using a rules engine and/or heuristics and utilizing the adaptability result, the taxonomy, the enterprise profile, and data gathered in creating the taxonomy, the enterprise profile, and the set of weights.
