Flourishing in a Volatile and Uncertain World

Date: 4 April 2024

Session description:

We live in genuinely unprecedented times and are experiencing what Bennis and Nanus (1987) visualised when they described the VUCA world (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous). Our constantly changing and uncertain world is causing a new level of pressure permeating all aspects of our lives. To thrive in this VUCA context, we must develop strategies to enhance our resilience and support well-being. Research has consistently shown that individuals with high levels of resilience have an enhanced ability to bounce back from adversity, enabling them to thrive in turbulent times (Wagnild & Young, 1993). To succeed in life and achieve career goals and personal aspirations, we must build and maintain resilience consistently. 

During this podcast, we will explore a contemporary research-based model of resilience along with practical strategies that enable individuals to flourish in a VUCA world.

For this video podcast session, we will be asking Dr Lynda questions from our AMBA & BGA student & graduate members.
