Summary/Abstract: Organizations rarely function in a stable environment since they must deal with a variety of complexity, novelty, and volatility. To stay afloat, one must possess exceptional dynamism and adaptability to react correctly to these uncertainties. This leads to the adoption of certain policies and plans that facilitate the organization's intervention. Drawing on the theoretical foundations of the Person-Environment Fit Theory, the study explores how the quest for organizational intervention is being interpreted in the context of the fourth industrial revolution in a modern business setting, emphasizing its components, catalysts, categories, and flexibility. Through conceptual a analysis, the findings demonstrated that the 4IR has led to an exponential increase in the need for organizational intervention. It therefore concludes that a shift in the mode of operation is necessary for survival in the modern era, and it suggests that business executives make sure that firm activities and the intervention strategies they intend to implement align to maximize resources before putting any intervention strategies into place.
