Course Overview

“Whereas the heroic manager of the past knew all, could do all and could solve every problem, the post-heroic manager asks how every problem can be solved in a way that develops other people´s capacity to handle it.” – Charles Handy (economic and social philosopher)

VUCA is a trendy managerial acronym short for Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity. It originated from leadership scholars Warren Bennis and Burt Nanus and was popularised mainly by the US military after the Cold War.

Leading employees in a VUCA environment requires a different kind of mindset and skills than what was practised in earlier times. Leaders now need to move beyond business-as-usual and find ways to thrive in the complex and uncertain environment in which we live and work.

In this course, you will learn new and dynamic principles of navigating through the VUCA world we now live in.  You will also learn how to change Volatility to Vision, Uncertainty to Understanding, Complexity to Clarity and Ambiguity to Agility.
