This is a quick explanation of the VUCA world.

V-  volatile,

U – uncertain,

C- Complex and

A- Ambiguous.

These words have specific meaning as it relates to our world and the way that we deal with it.

• Volatile means being subject to frequent, rapid and significant change.
• Uncertain  means events and outcomes are unpredictable.
• Complex means that phenomena are caused  a multiplicity of issues and factors, some of which may be intricately interconnected. This may feel a bit chaotic.
• Ambiguous  means that there is a  lack of clarity and the difficulty of understanding exactly what the situation is.

Sounds like the time that we are in.  We are undergoing rapid and significant change, we cannot predict what will happen a month from now, things feel chaotic and we are not quite clear on what is happening.
