Przywództwo w świecie VUCA. Jak być skutecznym liderem w niepewnym środowisku

Agnieszka Piątkowska

VUCA menedżerze! Witaj w nowej, niepewnej rzeczywistości Witaj, zanurz się w niej i nie utoń. Co więcej - pływaj skutecznie i kieruj innymi tak, by i oni nie utonęli - ani Twoi pracownicy, ani Twoja firma. Termin VUCA odnosi się do działania w świecie XXI wieku, w którym "stare, dobre czasy" przewidywalności, stabilności, równomiernego wzrostu i braku spektakularnych niespodzianek od losu włożyć należy między historyczne bajki. Dziś rządzi niepewność i nieprzewidywalność, a kolejne tzw. "czarne łabędzie", czyli zdarzenia nieprawdopodobne, jak pojawienie się pandemii wywołanej wirusem COVID, wydają się być już tylko kwestią czasu... Jak w tej sytuacji funkcjonować jako lider, osoba odpowiedzialna za dobrostan i rozwój firmy oraz ludzi w owej firmie zatrudnionych? W książce znajdziesz m.in.: 10 sposobów na sprawne przywództwo w świecie VUCA 15 wskazówek dotyczących zarządzania wirtualnymi zespołami 25 zachowań zwycięskich zespołów 60 narzędzi i modeli przydatnych przy podejmowaniu decyzji, kreowaniu wizji przywództwa, samoocenie lidera, rekrutacji, we współpracy w zespole, w zarządzaniu zmianą i budowaniu zwinności w organizacji Moja książka jest efektem wielu poszukiwań w literaturze przedmiotu, przeglądów badań, rozmów z ekspertami i przedstawicielami świata biznesu oraz doświadczeń własnych. Najistotniejszymi czynnikami osiągnięcia długotrwałego sukcesu organizacji w świecie VUCA jest nowoczesne przywództwo, sprzyjająca uczeniu się kultura organizacyjna oraz zwinne zarządzanie zmianą i na tych elementach oparta jest książka. Mam nadzieję, że pomoże ona w lepszym podejmowaniu decyzji oraz przyniesie otuchę w niepewnych czasach. Książka stanowi zbiór wskazówek, ale nie gotowych recept sprawdzających się zawsze i we wszystkich warunkach, gdyż w świecie VUCA nic nie jest "na pewno" i na zawsze. ze wstępu
