Description & Coverage
Description:

In today's rapidly evolving world, traditional management approaches often fail to address the complexities of modern challenges. Decision-makers frequently encounter unpredictable environments where Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity (VUCA) reign; this poses a significant obstacle to achieving sustainable outcomes and can lead to ineffective decision-making.

By presenting cutting-edge research and theoretical frameworks, Chaos, Complexity, and Sustainability in Management equips seasoned professionals, researchers, and students with the tools to navigate the complexities of adaptive systems and make informed decisions in a VUCA world. It delves into decision-making in strenuous environments, systems thinking, and sustainable management practices, providing practical insights and strategies for addressing these challenges. Through a comprehensive exploration of these concepts, readers will understand how to thrive in turbulent times.
