Overview
The conference theme VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) is based on adapting quickly to changing circumstances, concentrating on disruptive innovation and optimism in an industry that has been hard hit by recent events. Managing teams and resources in a VUCA environment can take its toll on all aspects of the business, affecting the decision making processes you have and un-nerving employees but it can be used advantageously! We’ll be looking at how to inspire the TUCO membership in unlocking the power of modifying processes, people and products during rapid alterations in their external environment without losing core values.
