The public administration (PA) discipline recognizes public sector organizations' need to manage tensions and competing pressures, especially in the context of turbulence and complexity. But it but has only recently considered organizational ambidexterity (OA) as a capability that allows this. This study reports bibliometric reviews and content analyses concerning OA. It identifies implications for PA and research gaps. Despite OA's appeal in addressing PA challenges, an understanding of how the PA context might influence OA applicability is just emerging. We describe a PA research agenda that includes OA and the conditions promoting it.
