VUCA is not just another acronym. Originally
coined by the American military to describe a
situation fraught with a variety of
challenges, it now has a permanent place in
the realms of strategic leadership. Those who
have made it into an enterprise management
role are finding that their leadership skills
are truly being tried and tested on account of
the Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous
environment we are in.
Agility is now the name of the
game. Developing one's leadership skills to
match this requirement, and to not only
surmount the challenges posed by the VUCA
world, but do so in a mature and authentic way,
is what this book is all about. It gently
submerges the reader into an impressive tank
of knowledge that the authors, experts in the
field of personal development, have amassed
during their careers. Psychology, mythology
and examples of real-life enterprises are
accompanied by the excellent analogy of one of
our best-known heroes, Luke Skywalker of the
Star Wars films, to illustrate that there is
nothing to fear, that we all have the
potential to act courageously.
At regular intervals throughout the book, the
reader is presented with thought-provoking
questions and statements, the answers to which
will help them eventually resurface with a
clear picture of how to use their skills and
talents to motivate themselves and others to
proceed wisely in the corporate landscape.
