Adjective that means under constant / frequent change

English Language & Usage Asked on August 26, 2021

I would like to find a suitable adjective to describe a leader board that has changed frequently. Of course the leader board can change, but it doesn’t have to — the possibility of entrenchment / solidifying positions is also a distinct outcome. With this in mind, I want to draw attention to the fact that it has in fact changed this time around.

A ______ leader board suggests firms are ramping up operations.

I considered using "dynamic" / "volatile" here, but dynamic sounded too vague and volatile seemed a bit unnatural.

I think what you are basically looking for is a word that means both these things: One, that the leaderboard is changing, and two, that it's changing for the better (because the firms are ramping up operations).

Keeping this in mind, I suggest that you go with progressive

Progressive:

  • of, relating to, or characterized by progress

  • making use of or interested in new ideas, findings, or opportunities
