This paper presents a systematic literature review to highlight the increasing importance of employee thriving in promoting organisational agility. However, as organisations continue operating in increasingly complex and dynamic environments, how employees can thrive has emerged as a key issue in maintaining continued competitive advantage and flexibility. Although the relationship between employee well-being and organisational performance has been extensively studied, there is limited empirical research into the connection between thriving at work and organisational agility. In order to address this shortcoming, Scopus and Web of Science databases were searched using the PRISMA model to identify 31 articles on the topic that were published in the past five years (2023-2025). Three main themes were identified during the review, which include (1) Resilience and Well-Being in the Workplace, which established the role of psychological resilience and coping strategies in determining employee performance and well-being; (2) Leadership and Organisational Support for Thriving, which identifies the effect of leadership styles and the organisational systems on supporting thriving of employees; and (3) Workplace Dynamics and Career Development, which established the role of task uncertainty, proactive behaviours, and opportunities to develop a career, and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven systems, to support thriving. The results indicate that organisational agility is largely influenced by thriving at work. It is especially evident when it helps in enhancing employee engagement, flexibility, and overall performance during the change process. Thus, it is evident in this review that attributes such as resilience, effective leadership and a favourable working environment are also significant when it comes to employee success. As a result, it positively impacts organisational agility. Therefore, the research paper will provide insights into the use of employee thriving to develop agility and adaptability in organisations in the ever-changing environment by establishing the major drivers of thriving at work.
