About this Event
Presenter: John Hackett
Today's world is marked with unprecedented uncertainty, challenges, and disruption. In the 1990s, The U.S. Army War College developed the term V.U.C.A. to describe these situations as challenges to modern military operations. V.U.C.A. describes situations marked with Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity. The acronym may have been developed for military situations but is undoubtedly applicable to world situations challenging leaders today. All Leaders of any organization live and lead in a V.U.C.A. world today. The actual content of leadership is constant and crucial; however, the context of leading in a V.U.C.A. world requires that school leaders enhance or develop different leadership skills to best serve those they lead.
The purpose of this Administrator's Academy is to introduce school leaders to a new leadership skill to navigate a V.U.C.A. world. This Academy will provide the participants with useful, practical information and skills to enhance their leadership as a coach. This Academy will focus on how practical communication, coaching skills, and reflection can be a guide to navigating a V.U.C.A. world. Participants will complete pre-session work, including reviewing relevant articles on leading in a V.U.C.A. world and coaching as a leadership skill, an introductory online survey, and the Six Types of Working Genius Assessment from the Table Group (Thetablegroup.com). The Assessment Report from the Six Types of Working Genius and reflections on articles will be brought to class for discussion, collaboration, and skills practice. This Academy will address a V.U.C.A. environment and how it affects leadership. An activity-based introduction to communication and coaching skills and reflection will be used to demonstrate how to transform a Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous(V.U.C.A.) environment into a V.U.C.A. Prime environment marked by Vision, Understanding, Clarity, and Adaptability.
