Abstract The contemporary business environment is characterized by technological disruption, global uncertainty, economic volatility, and rapidly evolving workforce expectations. Traditional Human Resource Management (HRM) systems, designed for stability and control, often struggle to respond effectively to such turbulence. This conceptual paper proposes an integrative framework linking disruptive forces with Agile Human Resource Management (Agile HRM) practices to enhance organizational resilience. Drawing from dynamic capabilities theory, organizational resilience literature, strategic HRM, and agile management principles, the study conceptualizes how disruption acts as both a threat and a catalyst for HR transformation. The framework identifies technological disruption, market volatility, workforce digitalization, and crisis events as drivers of HR agility. It further explains how Agile HRM practices flexible workforce design, continuous learning, decentralized decision-making, adaptive performance systems, and employee empowerment mediate the relationship between disruption and business resilience. The paper argues that organizations that strategically embrace HR agility are better positioned to absorb shocks, adapt rapidly, and sustain competitive advantage. The study contributes to the HRM literature by reconceptualizing disruption not as a destabilizing force but as a developmental opportunity for resilient enterprise transformation.
