The term ‘Vucareer’ is a neologism derived from the conjugation of the acronym VUCA and career. VUCA stands for Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous—an acronym often used to describe the world we live in. The term VUCA originated with the United States Army War College to describe conditions resulting from the Cold War. The acronym has since been used by businesses across industries and management education experts to advise leadership and management, particularly in the context of globalisation and technological disruption.
