 WHAT IS VUCA?

VUCA is an acronym coined in 1987, based on the leadership theories of

Warren Bennis and Burt Nanus, to describe or to reflect on the volatility,
uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity of general conditions and situations. The
U.S. Army War College introduced the concept of VUCA to describe the more
volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous multilateral world perceived as resulting
from the end of the Cold War. More frequent use and discussion of the term "VUCA"
began from 2002 and derives from this acronym from military education. It has
subsequently taken root in emerging ideas in strategic leadership that apply in a
wide range of organizations, from for-profit corporations to education.
The deeper meaning of each element of VUCA serves to enhance the
strategic significance of VUCA foresight and insight as well as the behavior of groups
and individuals in organizations. It discusses systemic failures and behavioral
failures which are characteristic of organizational failure.
 V = Volatility: the nature and dynamics of change, and the nature and
speed of change forces and change catalysts.
 U = Uncertainty: the lack of predictability, the prospects for surprise, and
the sense of awareness and understanding of issues and events.
 C = Complexity: the multiplex of forces, the confounding of issues, no
cause-and-effect chain and confusion that surrounds organization.
 A = Ambiguity: the haziness of reality, the potential for misreads, and the
mixed meanings of conditions; cause and effect confusion.
