Explanation

Organizational agility is the term for an organization's ability to rapidly adapt to change, which is precisely what service-oriented computing (SOC) enables by exposing business capabilities as reusable, loosely coupled services. Organizational diversity (A) refers to variety in workforce or systems, not adaptability. Organizational federation (C) describes a governance model where independent entities collaborate under shared rules - closer to identity/trust management than responsiveness. Organizational interoperability (D) means different systems can work together, which SOC supports as a mechanism, but interoperability is a technical capability, not the strategic business outcome of being responsive to change. Memory tip: Think agile → agility - just as Agile development responds quickly to changing requirements, organizational agility means the whole business can pivot fast, and SOC is the architectural enabler of that flexibility.
