With the Business environment in a constant flux, it is essential to change performance benchmarks quickly and cascade those changes down through the organization so that the company can continue to survive through these constant changes. Therefore, Organisational agility is important to deliver on quality goals. This study will seek ways to understand various determinants of organizational agility and how organizational agility impacts the business performance. A quantitative approach using the survey research design was employed. A structured questionnaire was administered to 65 randomly selected managers of SMEs in United Arab Emirates (UAE). The structural equation modelling procedure was used to test the hypotheses developed for the purpose of the study. This was conducted using the SmartPLS. Hypotheses tests indicated that continuous improvement, flexibility, innovation, and responding speed are the business practices that had a significant positive influence on organisational agility. Also, organisational agility in turn had a significant positive influence on the business performance.
