🤔 If we consider that whole world in general was located in Complex domain (referring to Cynefin model) - did it shift to Chaotic domain in last few years? Many of us have heard about #VUCA (remember your #leadership or #agilecoac trai) which stands for: Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity , Ambiguity. But what if modern days VUCA is not relevant anymore and have lost its descriptive meaningfulness? The situations which we face in politics, supply chains, pandemic, climate change are far more chaotic than VUCA describes it. 🌍 In other words: this might be no longer a VUCA world. It might have changed, which means there might be a need for a new language to explain the changed world and ideas how to adapt to it. 💡 An intentional parallel to VUCA there is BANI — Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, and Incomprehensible. The BANI framework offers a lens through which to see and structure what’s happening in the world. At least at a surface level, the components of the acronym might even hint at opportunities for response: Brittleness could be met by resilience and slack;  Anxiety can be eased by empathy and mindfulness;  Nonlinearity would need context and flexibility;  Incomprehensibility asks for transparency and intuition. These may well be more reactions than solutions, but they suggest the possibility that responses can be found. 🙏 Thank you Jamais Cascio for raising the awareness and ideas for reactions and Stephan Grabmeier for this amazing infographic. 📄 More info here: https://lnkd.in/gebJa-ax https://lnkd.in/g59uj7Uz https://lnkd.in/gi92aHuY #agile #scrum #lean #executiveleadership #framework #vicaworld #bani #evolution #changemanagement #strategy #adaptation
