According to Prof. Dr. Pratikno, M.Soc.Sc, capacity is dynamic, which means that capacity can change according to changes in time, place, and challenges from time to time. For public organizations and companies, the ability to withstand the challenges from time to time depends on the capacity of the organization or company to adapt to the context so as to reach a point called “the right time and the right place”.
