Session: Navigating Industry 4.0: Unveiling Leadership Challenges in a VUCA World
In the dynamic realm of Industry 4.0, a complex competitive landscape has emerged within the Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity (VUCA) world. Traditional leadership paradigms are evolving, shifting the focus from an exclusive group of highly skilled individuals to empowering groups of self-directed individuals to achieve collective goals.
A compelling study by Hoff and Smith (2020) reveals a stark reality – a staggering 67% failure rate among individuals in leadership roles, questioning the adequacy of current leadership selection and development practices. Further insights from Gentry et al. (2016) shed light on the challenges leaders face in adapting to the demands of a VUCA world, emphasizing the urgent need for innovative tools to support the training and evolution of current and future leaders.
