𝗪𝗲 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗩𝗨𝗖𝗔 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱. This acronym stands for Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous. I first learned about this in the Stanford post-graduate program on leadership and it resonated with the whole class. Everyone had been through VUCA episodes that often manifested from nowhere. The acronym originated from the U.S. military college system in the late 1980s and has since become a foundation for military curricula on strategy and execution. VUCA as a concept transcended the business world following the global financial crisis. With shorter business and economic cycles on the horizon, the ability of business leaders to embrace VUCA, operate effectively, and succeed despite it is becoming more important.
