Reliable scientific foundation

The Diffusion of Innovations model, developed by Everett Rogers in 1965, is used to indicate to what extent a candidate has an Agile Mindset. In his model, Rogers describes how a new idea spreads in different phases, depending on who embraces the idea. The five main groups, ranked by descending agility of their mindset, are: Innovators, Early Adopters, Early Majority, Late Majority and Laggards.
