Communications and Public Speaking CoP: • VUCA Factors, Sustainability, and You (2)Speech Title: VUCA Factors, Sustainability, and You A trendy managerial acronym: VUCA, short for volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity, and a catchall for “Hey, it’s crazy out there!” It’s also misleading: VUCA conflates four distinct types of challenges that demand four distinct types of responses. That makes it difficult to know how to approach a challenging situation and easy to use VUCA as a crutch, a way to throw off the hard work of strategy and planning. The keynote presentation will stimulate reaction from attendees on topics surrounding sustainability. It will be motivational but highlight our communication plans/lack of plans, and expose some more recent risk factors. Attendees will be encouraged to explore how they view the planet, the existence of the inhabitants, and how we can reduce factors that delivered us to the conditions we now endure. An emotional but informational presentation is planned. There will be time reserved at the end for a discussion. |
