This document discusses developing leaders in a VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous) environment. It begins by explaining how the business world has become increasingly unstable and rapidly changing due to forces like globalization and technology. This has created a VUCA environment that requires new leadership skills. The document then discusses the origins and definitions of VUCA. It proposes flipping the VUCA acronym to the "VUCA Prime" of vision, understanding, clarity, and agility. Finally, it offers steps that talent managers can take to develop leaders with these VUCA Prime skills, such as hiring for agility and using scenarios and simulations in leadership development programs.
The business world has become volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA). It is the "new normal."For organizations to succeed in this VUCA environment, HR and talent management professionals must change the focus and methods of leadership development. This UNC Executive Development white paper is designed to support HR and talent management professionals in addressing that shift. Specifically, it:• Discusses the history of VUCA and how it applies to business strategy and development.• Explores how VUCA is relevant to leadership development.• Discusses how vision, understanding, clarity, and agility (VUCA Prime) provide a path forward in this environment.• Offers suggestions on what HR and talent managers must do to change their leadership development approach.Download this white paper today to see how your organization can adapt and thrive in the new normal.
The latest volume of ideas@work explores critical issues and best practices in talent management.
Two of our papers focus on today’s volatile and constantly changing business environment. Developing Leaders in a VUCA Environment provides talent managers with ideas, guidance, and examples on how to address the shift needed in leadership development to adapt to the new normal, while Building a Resilient Organizational Culture focuses on how to cultivate and nurture a culture of resilience at all levels of the organization.
This volume also features a chapter from what’s been called the “talent management bible” - Marc Effron’s and Miriam Ort’s “One Page Talent Management”. This practical, science based guide to accelerating talent growth has become a best seller in talent management circles, and the chapter we’ve included outlines the barriers to building talent and the philosophy for successful talent development based on simplicity, accountability, and transparency.
The other two white papers included in this volume examine new trends in talent development. Got Game? The Use of Gaming in Learning and Development takes a serious look at how gaming technology can be used to develop organizational talent. The Big Data Talent Gap explores the talent implications of the big data revolution.

7 Top Corporate Trends for Learning & Development in 2014EpiphanyEdu
Change is the only constant of the 21st century. With fast-growing technologies, work has evolved so much in the last 20 years. Employees and workers are expected to keep up to date and be constantly trained and retrained to keep up with the business expectations of the company. How has an increasingly globalised workforce and technology shifts affected the way corporations learn? We present to you 7 top trends to look out for in the Learning and Development Sector.
On the one hand, when leadership manifests itself, the roles assumed by the leader
are extremely important, but, on the other hand, the roles assumed by the members of
an organisation are important as well. “Shaping” the future is made starting from
several variables: the evolution of technology, the cultural conflicts, the uneven
economic developments, the diversity of contexts which very often do not depend on
“actors”, the quality of political leaders, and the complexity of social problems that
arise. In light of these variables, leadership can play a decisive role to the extent that
suitable individuals appear in crisis situations, individuals who use a visionary and
creative leadership which is influenced by the values in which people find themselves.
We can speak of a favourable direction in terms of development to the extent that the
leadership has the ability to influence social groups to act in a certain way as to
achieve certain goals shared by the group. The aim of our paper is to present some of
the current concerns regarding leadership and its evolution in relation to the
evolution of society in general starting from the dramatic changes occurring in the
economic, social, political, technological and cultural fields and also to highlight
some of the future directions of leadership. The research methodology is based on
literature review.

SPIRITUAL TRAITS THAT AFFECT THE LEADERSHIP PERFORMANCE – REFLECTION FROM VID...IAEME Publication
Spiritual traits are characteristics shown by individuals that are fundamental to
their development of our inner being for achieving happiness, peace and fulfillment.
Organizations are constantly on the lookout for leaders who display good
performance. Performance of an individual is dependent on various factors starting
from the self, the organizational context he is working under, his team members and
the customer/ stakeholders who need to be satisfied with the outcome. In this paper,
we provide a qualitative analysis of how people with high spiritual traits display
leadership performance based on lessons from Vidura Neeti. A spiritually sound
organization can look for these traits in new hires for long term sustenance.

Chapter 4: How do you think planning in today’s organizations compares to planning in an organization 25 years ago? Do you think planning becomes more important or less important in a world where everything quickly changes and crises are a regular part of organizational life? Why?
Today companies must constantly seek competitive advantage without disrupting daily operations. They must be able to adapt quickly and more efficiently to change. In a high technology, instant gratification, fast paced world companies can’t just focus on doing one thing well and make changes slowly. They must be able to adapt to situations quickly and with effective results. They should constantly seek opportunity and be able to identify and capitalize on initiatives (Kotter, 2012).
Companies and organizations are affected by their environment. The external environment affects what happens in the internal environment. The external environment is generally classified as either certain or uncertain and by degree of complexity. As these factors change and increase or decrease in the external environment, the internal environment adapts to these changes. Years ago companies coped with environmental changes by creating “buffer departments.” The purpose of these buffering roles was to absorb the uncertainty from the environment. Many organizations no longer create these buffer departments. They instead allow the core of the company to be exposed. They believe that by doing so they are being more open to the customers or suppliers and not focusing on internal efficiency. This allows the building of closer relationships with suppliers and customers.
A Crisis is defined as a set of circumstances in which institutions or individuals face threats outside of the normal daily routine. The significance of these circumstances vary widely depending to individuals and their coping mechanisms (Drennan, McConnell, & Stark, 2015). The last decade in America has introduced us to many crisis events including 9/11 and hurricane Katrina. These crisis events have made people question the vunerability of our country, as well as, the ability to cope and respond to crisis. Crises can also occur frequently in the business world. The key to correcting these crises is to react quickly and formulate a plan, although I think that planning months in advance is less likely the key to success today. The best plan of action in today’s business world is just to have general idea of what you plan to do with the ability to adapt quickly when necessary.
Chapter 4: Is changing the organization's domain a feasible strategy for coping with a threatening environment? Can you think of an organization in the recent news that has changed its domain? Explain.
The domain is defined as the chosen environment field of action. It is the location in which a particular organ ...

CH. 12 Case Incident 1: Sharing Is Performing
Replacing Nicholas Dirks as the chancellor of University of California at Berkeley, Carol T. Christ is taking on a strategy that her predecessors did not utilize: sharing leadership. Notably, the prior chancellor and provost would not consult other decision makers and stakeholders at the university when they proposed to dissolve completely the College of Chemistry. Christ, on the other hand, met with Frances McGinley, the student vice president of academic affairs, reaching out to “get a beat on what [student government] was doing and how [she] could help.” This move was unusual because McGinley would often have to track down the other administrators to even get a meeting (or would be merely delegated work). Another such arrangement between Jill Martin and David Barrs at a high school in Essex, England, designates special interest areas where each takes the lead, and they both share an educational philosophy, meet daily, have the authority to make decisions on the spot, and challenge one another.
As Declan Fitzsimons suggests in a Harvard Business Review article, the twenty-first century moves too quickly and is too dynamic to be handled by one person. By sharing leadership among multiple individuals, the organization can respond more adaptively to challenges, share disparate but complementary perspectives, and ease the burden experienced by the traditional charismatic leader figurehead. However, sharing leadership leads to its own issues and obstacles, which are apparent in the multiple relationships between team members, subordinates, and other employees. Not o ...

Introduction
Global leaders are a rising class of leaders that are capable of working in universal and global connections. Introductory exploration demonstrates that global leaders are a remarkable breed with identifiable attributes (Mendenhall, 2013). They have a particular interest in the world and enthusiasm for individuals is not the same as themselves. This hobby motivates visionary activities and associations that encompass national limits. Besides, genuine global leadership perceives the effect of their activities on surrounding groups and the entire society. They comprehend that individual success is subordinate upon the thriving of others and that they assume a part in changing their organizations, as well as the social orders in which they work. Osland, Oddou, Bird, & Osland, (2013) Shows worldwide pioneers conceived, as well as can make. Global leadership gets to be who they are by developing specific methods for taking a gander at the world, contemplating issues and opportunities and acting with respectability in a quest for arrangements. Research demonstrates that global pioneers offer three typical qualities: they have a collective mentality that permits them to unite cross-culture over limits, they are international business people headed to make new solutions and seize opportunities, and they are universal nationals enlivened to add to the groups they touch. Initiative in a various and multicultural environment: creating mindfulness, learning, and abilities (Caligiuri, & Tarique, 2012).
Over the previous decade, global and residential associations have perceived the essential requirement for their leaders to wind up skillful in culturally diverse connections. The move to a worldwide economy and the expanding expansion of the workforce in the United States bolster the progressing requirement for exploration and preparing here. Capable multicultural leaders are vital to an association's accomplishment in the global business sector. Mendenhall, (2013) gave a content understudies in administration or business and can likewise be valuable to differ qualities and improve the diplomatic skill of a.

Re: Monitoring of Consumer Social Media Engagement
Date: June 1, 2021
Pursuant to your request, we contracted with a social media analytics-monitoring organization
to track customer behavior and conversations on social, digital, and traditional channels. By
monitoring and analyzing these conversations, we can define emerging trends, identify
actionable insights, and optimize the impact of our brand strategies and communications
efforts.
We have received two consecutive monthly reports with the following critical insights from
potential and existing consumers. These reports are consistent and statistically valid based on
the number of observations.
1. There is a significant and growing concern for the safety of park customers and
employees. While not grounded in a recurrence of the incident prior to closing the parks
earlier this year, it is clear that there is a growing perception of risk for future safety-
and injury-related incidents.
2. There is significant evidence of negative consumer and employee opinions as to the
reasons for a “quick” reopening of the park. The overriding consensus is that the park
has reopened for profit without stakeholder safety as the priority.
3. It is our opinion that damage has occurred to the brand image and that while safety
issues have been addressed in a highly effective manner, the negative implications for
the brand can only be reversed through aggressive and strategic brand management
efforts. This certainly includes marketing alignment with those efforts.
We will continue to monitor, analyze, and report on this situation on a monthly basis.
Leadership is about ideas and actions. Put simply, it is about implementing new ideas into creative
actions to achieve desired results. Doing so, however, is far from simple. We know leadership re-
quires considerable skills and abilities. It requires knowledge and insight—about one’s organization
or entity, its people, goals, strengths and market niche. Yet, something more is needed. Leadership
also requires a kind of awareness beyond the immediate, an awareness of the larger pictures—of
paradigms that direct us, beliefs that sustain us, values that guide us and principles that motivate us,
our worldviews.
This article will, first, briefly examine how the concept of worldviews is used in leadership study
and the contexts in which it arises. Second, it will critically look at worldviews, recognizing that they
are not always coherent and that our belief systems are often fragmented and incomplete. Third, it
will argue for the relevance of the concept worldview in leadership study as a way to explore vari-
ous visions of life and ways of life that may be helpful in overcoming the challenges we face today.
Fourth, it will examine how national and global issues impact worldview construction, esp ...

The most urgent problems of our times – concerning innovation management processes – are complex and turbulent in nature. In this article we define the vucability approach to innovation management. The VUCA refers to volatile (V), uncertain (U), complex (C) and ambiguous (A) times we are today facing. Many innovation management models do not take these Postnormal Era requirements into consideration. Uncertain and complex VUCA conditions are the fundamental reason to elaborate a new approach for innovation management. Our novel approach focuses in three essential dimensions of innovation management: (1) the density of serendipity thinking, (2) platform utilisation (including business model variety) and (3) innovation ecosystem. We claim that in the evolutionary development of science and technology parks (STPs) should aim to highest sophistication in these three critical fields. In this paper we present the foundations of the ‘vucability’ approach. We also note that in the development of STPs, professionals should evaluate the sophistication level of serendipity thinking, platform utilisation and innovation ecosystem development. Systemic evaluation and development activities will lead eventually to the highest level of vucability excellence. The evaluation and mapping system (EMS-VUCA 1.0) of the vucability assessment will be presented in a robust form in our article.

Introduction
The Doctorate program in business administration for first year of University focuses on the introduction of the various concepts of leading change, marketing strategy and consumer behavior, finance for managers, a management strategy for performance, business intelligence and global economics. This paper mainly includes all the evidence of the concepts which are learned in the four courses of my first year such as leading change, business intelligence and information systems, management strategy for performance, marketing strategy and consumer behavior in the order it has been given.
Part I: Portfolio of CLA 2’s
CLA 2 Introduction: Course #1
Throughout the Leading change course we were introduced to the concepts of managing change, images of change management, why change? Contemporary pressures and drivers, vision and the direction of change, change communication strategies, organization development and sense-making approach, sustaining change versus initiative decay. This CLA2 paper offers proof of ability as IT Manager implement change in the organization. As agile transformation Leader in leading change and providing vision and sense of direction of change. This course has provided the ability to implement change in agile transformation and develop change management strategy by successful implementation of the change through entire enterprise level. Change is inevitable in the business world. Leading change is not an easy task and most of the change management processes have failed in the recent past due to various reasons. Effective team leaders are prerequisite in ensuring that the change is achieved within the stipulated time. Generally, leaders must cultivate the skills for assimilating change, providing expectedness and assist others to understand the integral risks, advantages, and reasons behind a certain change. The history of leading change which can be traced from 1960-2012 will be discussed in this paper. Moreover, various leadership styles and how they impact change in organizations will also be incorporated. Change process cannot be achieved without resistance in the workplace and this is also taken care of. Motivations for change are essential because they play fundamental roles in achieving changes. Furthermore, leading change as an individual is not easy since it requires much competence and skills. Lastly, success factors of implementing change process and its benefits are of great importance in organizations.

“How to Support and Develop the Innovation-oriented Entrepreneurship in Turbulent VUCA conditions?”
The most urgent problems of our times – concerning innovation management processes – are complex and turbulent in nature. In this article we define the vucability approach to innovation management. The VUCA refers to volatile (V), uncertain (U), complex (C) and ambiguous (A) times we are today facing. Many innovation management models do not take these Postnormal Era requirements into consideration. Uncertain and complex VUCA conditions are the fundamental reason to elaborate a new approach for innovation management. Our novel approach focuses in three essential dimensions of innovation management: (1) the density of serendipity thinking, (2) platform utilisation (including business model variety) and (3) innovation ecosystem. We claim that in the evolutionary development of science and technology parks (STPs), professionals on innovation management and governance should aim to highest sophistication in these three critical fields of innovation management. In this paper we present the foundations of the ‘vucability’ approach.

The current study's main goal is to look into the relationship between leadership styles and Erbil's financial outlook. Government officials, administrators, and leaders of large companies and organisations make critical decisions on a regular basis and expect positive outcomes in achieving their goals. 130 participants were involved in the present study. The results revealed that the highest value among all leadership styles was charismatic leadership. According to the research findings, there are more to uncover on the subject of leadership styles and Financial outlook in Erbil. A bigger sample size and including all the key races in Erbil would provide support for further studies.
Our intention in writing a Leadership Declaration is to clearly state the case for leadership and its importance to all of us at this time. At an organisational level, there is little doubt that real leadership is the “engine room” of performance. In the absence of systemic, results-focused leadership, breakthrough performance and high commitment will not be achieved.

In 1969, Howard Perlmutter was among the

How did this mindset differ from status quo
leadership? Perlmutter found that global
leaders needed to navigate increased com-

practices and recruitment of top talent (1969)
— the very domains human resources profes-
sionals are charged with developing. This
holds true today. Global leadership is excit-
ing, challenging and certainly complex (see
Exhibit 1). It has only been recently, however,
that the whole new mindset to which Perl-
mutter referred was scientifically defined by
the Najafi Global Mindset Institute at Thun-
derbird School of Global Management.
Are Your Leaders
Prepared for Global
Complexities?
Before we dive into the specifics of Global
Mindset, take a moment to assess the global
leadership needs in your own organization
(see Exhibit 2). Chances are that your orga-
nization is touched by global complexities,
even if it does not have geographically dis-
persed operations.
In the past 40 years, both the number and
impact of multinational companies grew
exponentially. Between 1990 and 2003 alone,
the number of multinational corporations
throughout the world increased from 3,000
Global leaders need to navigate increasing complexity in organizational culture, management
practices and recruitment of top talent — the very domains human resources professionals are
charged with developing. This requires a whole new mindset for leadership: Global Mindset.

SPIRITUAL TRAITS THAT AFFECT THE LEADERSHIP PERFORMANCE – REFLECTION FROM VID...IAEME Publication
Spiritual traits are characteristics shown by individuals that are fundamental to
their development of our inner being for achieving happiness, peace and fulfillment.
Organizations are constantly on the lookout for leaders who display good
performance. Performance of an individual is dependent on various factors starting
from the self, the organizational context he is working under, his team members and
the customer/ stakeholders who need to be satisfied with the outcome. In this paper,
we provide a qualitative analysis of how people with high spiritual traits display
leadership performance based on lessons from Vidura Neeti. A spiritually sound
organization can look for these traits in new hires for long term sustenance.
On the one hand, when leadership manifests itself, the roles assumed by the leader
are extremely important, but, on the other hand, the roles assumed by the members of
an organisation are important as well. “Shaping” the future is made starting from
several variables: the evolution of technology, the cultural conflicts, the uneven
economic developments, the diversity of contexts which very often do not depend on
“actors”, the quality of political leaders, and the complexity of social problems that
arise. In light of these variables, leadership can play a decisive role to the extent that
suitable individuals appear in crisis situations, individuals who use a visionary and
creative leadership which is influenced by the values in which people find themselves.
We can speak of a favourable direction in terms of development to the extent that the
leadership has the ability to influence social groups to act in a certain way as to
achieve certain goals shared by the group. The aim of our paper is to present some of
the current concerns regarding leadership and its evolution in relation to the
evolution of society in general starting from the dramatic changes occurring in the
economic, social, political, technological and cultural fields and also to highlight
some of the future directions of leadership. The research methodology is based on
literature review.

Chapter 4: How do you think planning in today’s organizations compares to planning in an organization 25 years ago? Do you think planning becomes more important or less important in a world where everything quickly changes and crises are a regular part of organizational life? Why?
Today companies must constantly seek competitive advantage without disrupting daily operations. They must be able to adapt quickly and more efficiently to change. In a high technology, instant gratification, fast paced world companies can’t just focus on doing one thing well and make changes slowly. They must be able to adapt to situations quickly and with effective results. They should constantly seek opportunity and be able to identify and capitalize on initiatives (Kotter, 2012).
Companies and organizations are affected by their environment. The external environment affects what happens in the internal environment. The external environment is generally classified as either certain or uncertain and by degree of complexity. As these factors change and increase or decrease in the external environment, the internal environment adapts to these changes. Years ago companies coped with environmental changes by creating “buffer departments.” The purpose of these buffering roles was to absorb the uncertainty from the environment. Many organizations no longer create these buffer departments. They instead allow the core of the company to be exposed. They believe that by doing so they are being more open to the customers or suppliers and not focusing on internal efficiency. This allows the building of closer relationships with suppliers and customers.
A Crisis is defined as a set of circumstances in which institutions or individuals face threats outside of the normal daily routine. The significance of these circumstances vary widely depending to individuals and their coping mechanisms (Drennan, McConnell, & Stark, 2015). The last decade in America has introduced us to many crisis events including 9/11 and hurricane Katrina. These crisis events have made people question the vunerability of our country, as well as, the ability to cope and respond to crisis. Crises can also occur frequently in the business world. The key to correcting these crises is to react quickly and formulate a plan, although I think that planning months in advance is less likely the key to success today. The best plan of action in today’s business world is just to have general idea of what you plan to do with the ability to adapt quickly when necessary.
Chapter 4: Is changing the organization's domain a feasible strategy for coping with a threatening environment? Can you think of an organization in the recent news that has changed its domain? Explain.
The domain is defined as the chosen environment field of action. It is the location in which a particular organ ...

CH. 12 Case Incident 1: Sharing Is Performing
Replacing Nicholas Dirks as the chancellor of University of California at Berkeley, Carol T. Christ is taking on a strategy that her predecessors did not utilize: sharing leadership. Notably, the prior chancellor and provost would not consult other decision makers and stakeholders at the university when they proposed to dissolve completely the College of Chemistry. Christ, on the other hand, met with Frances McGinley, the student vice president of academic affairs, reaching out to “get a beat on what [student government] was doing and how [she] could help.” This move was unusual because McGinley would often have to track down the other administrators to even get a meeting (or would be merely delegated work). Another such arrangement between Jill Martin and David Barrs at a high school in Essex, England, designates special interest areas where each takes the lead, and they both share an educational philosophy, meet daily, have the authority to make decisions on the spot, and challenge one another.
As Declan Fitzsimons suggests in a Harvard Business Review article, the twenty-first century moves too quickly and is too dynamic to be handled by one person. By sharing leadership among multiple individuals, the organization can respond more adaptively to challenges, share disparate but complementary perspectives, and ease the burden experienced by the traditional charismatic leader figurehead. However, sharing leadership leads to its own issues and obstacles, which are apparent in the multiple relationships between team members, subordinates, and other employees. Not o ...

Introduction
Global leaders are a rising class of leaders that are capable of working in universal and global connections. Introductory exploration demonstrates that global leaders are a remarkable breed with identifiable attributes (Mendenhall, 2013). They have a particular interest in the world and enthusiasm for individuals is not the same as themselves. This hobby motivates visionary activities and associations that encompass national limits. Besides, genuine global leadership perceives the effect of their activities on surrounding groups and the entire society. They comprehend that individual success is subordinate upon the thriving of others and that they assume a part in changing their organizations, as well as the social orders in which they work. Osland, Oddou, Bird, & Osland, (2013) Shows worldwide pioneers conceived, as well as can make. Global leadership gets to be who they are by developing specific methods for taking a gander at the world, contemplating issues and opportunities and acting with respectability in a quest for arrangements. Research demonstrates that global pioneers offer three typical qualities: they have a collective mentality that permits them to unite cross-culture over limits, they are international business people headed to make new solutions and seize opportunities, and they are universal nationals enlivened to add to the groups they touch. Initiative in a various and multicultural environment: creating mindfulness, learning, and abilities (Caligiuri, & Tarique, 2012).
Over the previous decade, global and residential associations have perceived the essential requirement for their leaders to wind up skillful in culturally diverse connections. The move to a worldwide economy and the expanding expansion of the workforce in the United States bolster the progressing requirement for exploration and preparing here. Capable multicultural leaders are vital to an association's accomplishment in the global business sector. Mendenhall, (2013) gave a content understudies in administration or business and can likewise be valuable to differ qualities and improve the diplomatic skill of a.

Re: Monitoring of Consumer Social Media Engagement
Date: June 1, 2021
Pursuant to your request, we contracted with a social media analytics-monitoring organization
to track customer behavior and conversations on social, digital, and traditional channels. By
monitoring and analyzing these conversations, we can define emerging trends, identify
actionable insights, and optimize the impact of our brand strategies and communications
efforts.
We have received two consecutive monthly reports with the following critical insights from
potential and existing consumers. These reports are consistent and statistically valid based on
the number of observations.
1. There is a significant and growing concern for the safety of park customers and
employees. While not grounded in a recurrence of the incident prior to closing the parks
earlier this year, it is clear that there is a growing perception of risk for future safety-
and injury-related incidents.
2. There is significant evidence of negative consumer and employee opinions as to the
reasons for a “quick” reopening of the park. The overriding consensus is that the park
has reopened for profit without stakeholder safety as the priority.
3. It is our opinion that damage has occurred to the brand image and that while safety
issues have been addressed in a highly effective manner, the negative implications for
the brand can only be reversed through aggressive and strategic brand management
efforts. This certainly includes marketing alignment with those efforts.
We will continue to monitor, analyze, and report on this situation on a monthly basis.
Leadership is about ideas and actions. Put simply, it is about implementing new ideas into creative
actions to achieve desired results. Doing so, however, is far from simple. We know leadership re-
quires considerable skills and abilities. It requires knowledge and insight—about one’s organization
or entity, its people, goals, strengths and market niche. Yet, something more is needed. Leadership
also requires a kind of awareness beyond the immediate, an awareness of the larger pictures—of
paradigms that direct us, beliefs that sustain us, values that guide us and principles that motivate us,
our worldviews.
This article will, first, briefly examine how the concept of worldviews is used in leadership study
and the contexts in which it arises. Second, it will critically look at worldviews, recognizing that they
are not always coherent and that our belief systems are often fragmented and incomplete. Third, it
will argue for the relevance of the concept worldview in leadership study as a way to explore vari-
ous visions of life and ways of life that may be helpful in overcoming the challenges we face today.
Fourth, it will examine how national and global issues impact worldview construction, esp ...

The most urgent problems of our times – concerning innovation management processes – are complex and turbulent in nature. In this article we define the vucability approach to innovation management. The VUCA refers to volatile (V), uncertain (U), complex (C) and ambiguous (A) times we are today facing. Many innovation management models do not take these Postnormal Era requirements into consideration. Uncertain and complex VUCA conditions are the fundamental reason to elaborate a new approach for innovation management. Our novel approach focuses in three essential dimensions of innovation management: (1) the density of serendipity thinking, (2) platform utilisation (including business model variety) and (3) innovation ecosystem. We claim that in the evolutionary development of science and technology parks (STPs) should aim to highest sophistication in these three critical fields. In this paper we present the foundations of the ‘vucability’ approach. We also note that in the development of STPs, professionals should evaluate the sophistication level of serendipity thinking, platform utilisation and innovation ecosystem development. Systemic evaluation and development activities will lead eventually to the highest level of vucability excellence.

Throughout the Leading change course we were introduced to the concepts of managing change, images of change management, why change? Contemporary pressures and drivers, vision and the direction of change, change communication strategies, organization development and sense-making approach, sustaining change versus initiative decay. This CLA2 paper offers proof of ability as IT Manager implement change in the organization. As agile transformation Leader in leading change and providing vision and sense of direction of change. This course has provided the ability to implement change in agile transformation and develop change management strategy by successful implementation of the change through entire enterprise level. Change is inevitable in the business world. Leading change is not an easy task and most of the change management processes have failed in the recent past due to various reasons. Effective team leaders are prerequisite in ensuring that the change is achieved within the stipulated time. Generally, leaders must cultivate the skills for assimilating change, providing expectedness and assist others to understand the integral risks, advantages, and reasons behind a certain change. The history of leading change which can be traced from 1960-2012 will be discussed in this paper. Moreover, various leadership styles and how they impact change in organizations will also be incorporated. Change process cannot be achieved without resistance in the workplace and this is also taken care of. Motivations for change are essential because they play fundamental roles in achieving changes. Furthermore, leading change as an individual is not easy since it requires much competence and skills. Lastly, success factors of implementing change process and its benefits are of great importance in organizations.
