Volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. Concept in leadership studies VUCA is an acronym – first used in 1987, drawing on the leadership theories of Warren Bennis and Burt Nanus – to describe or to reflect on the volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity of general conditions and situations;[1][2] The U.S. Army War College introduced the concept of VUCA to describe the more volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous multilateral world perceived as resulting from the end of the Cold War. More frequent use and discussion of the term "VUCA" began from 2002 and derives from this acronym from military education.[3][need quotation to verify] It has subsequently taken root in emerging ideas in strategic leadership that apply in a wide range of organizations, from for-profit corporations[4][need quotation to verify] to education[5][6] Meaning[edit] VUCA world shows the unpredictable nature of the world at stake like the situation of COVID 19 we are in right now.

They employ hundreds if not thousands of staff, undertake a varied range of functions and have complex administrative structures often straddling multiple geographical locations. In order to operate as modern, agile and efficient organisations able to sustain growth and manage change it is essential that they have effective control over the records they create and use.
Historically the way in which internal records have been managed has developed in a piecemeal, organic fashion – often in response to local departmental requirements. It is now increasingly recognised that a more proactive, consistent and comprehensive approach is required for the institution to be able to cope with current and future demands. All institutions and their staff are under pressure to do more for less. Institutions are also becoming increasingly aware of the potential value contained within the internal records they hold. Whole Infokit. Thankfully this is a problem which can be easily solved with the application of some simple rules regarding file versioning. In most cases the information on version codes outlined below should be read and implemented alongside the guidance in Creating Information: What Makes A Good File Name?
With the version code appearing as a suffix to the main file name. As with the advice on file naming the key to success is the standardisation of approach across all users. Using version codes Version codes should be adopted that differentiate between those files that are ‘work in progress’ (draft) and those that are in the public domain (issue – this covers both internal and external issues). The method proposed may sound elaborate but does work and is very useful in identifying the most current version without relying on the modified date of the file (although this is useful as a sort key this may not always give a true reflection).
The convention is: [filename] {work status}{sequence}. Examples: Knowledge transfer. New Games – New Rules Knowledge Transfer, and specifically the transfer of innovation and intellectual property from colleges and universities to businesses and other communities, is a changed game. In many significant ways the context has changed, the skills and tools required have changed, and innovation practice has changed… …but nobody has bothered to update the manual: to set out the new rules of the game! This resource integrates current innovation theory, modern social media tools and current thinking on market behaviour or motivation, to provide a more effective model of Knowledge Transfer; a model that is capable of delivering more with less. And though it draws on a range of current literature on those issues, it is by no means a theoretical text: it draws upon years of practical application of these rules.
Why we need a new model The search to find a better model for KT stems from one simple practical problem: knowledge transfer is simply too inefficient as a process.

Kränkungen der Menschheit ist ein von Sigmund Freud im Jahr 1917 geprägter Begriff für umstürzende wissenschaftliche Entdeckungen, die, so Freuds These, das Selbstverständnis der Menschen in Form einer narzisstischen Kränkung in Frage gestellt haben.
Freud[Bearbeiten] Freud nennt drei große Einschnitte, die der naive Narzissmus des menschlichen Bewusstseins durch den historischen Fortschritt wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis erlitten habe: Die kosmologische Kränkung: Die erste Erschütterung sei die mit dem Namen Kopernikus verknüpfte Entdeckung gewesen, dass die Erde nicht der Mittelpunkt des Weltalls ist (vgl. Freud stellt seine Lehre des Unbewussten damit in einen Kontext mit den wissenschaftsgeschichtlich umwälzenden Theorien Kopernikus' und Darwins. Kritik und Rezeption[Bearbeiten] Die sachliche Berechtigung von Freuds Behauptungen über die Wirkung der Entdeckungen des Kopernikus und Darwins wurde wiederholt bestritten.

We are on the edge of change comparable to the rise of human life on Earth. — Vernor Vinge What does it feel like to stand here? It seems like a pretty intense place to be standing—but then you have to remember something about what it’s like to stand on a time graph: you can’t see what’s to your right.

This full day workshop builds a new community of scholars interested in exploring the potential of the “Social Studies of Information” (SSI) as a meta-identity for information research informed by the humanities and social sciences.
STS-influenced work within iSchools has been balkanized across a range of functional classifications and disciplinary identities, sometimes seen as marginal or esoteric. What Happens at The Workshop? Note: we are coordinating our schedule with the organizers of the simultaneous workshop "Breaking Down and Building Up: Accelerating Sociotech Scholarship in the iSchool Community. " Session 1. (Coffee break 10:50-11:15) Alex Hays | Emac 6300 › After Reading | On Memory (Electronic or Otherwise) – Vilém Flusser. By focusing on the moment between Oral and Written culture Flusser calls upon an important historic transition in Human history. All of a sudden the law was not an agreed upon cultural conversation. Instead law became eternally carved in stone, forever stating its dictum upon the culture. In Phaedrus Plato argues that written language is inferior to its spoken counterpart because the written word is dead. It cannot be conversed with. When someone commits a crime in Oral culture, the group reacts.
In written culture the ‘book of rules’ has a higher degree of social gravitas than the people in the area. In this shift to Electronic we are moving away from the message being written in stone. In conversation, any ambiguity that exists is parsed via a process of agreement and disagreement. LIS in Potsdam | Hobohms "Library and Information Science" Blog. Alain Ehrenberg.

Wissensgesellschaft – Docupedia. Einleitung Die Konzepte der Wissens- und Informationsgesellschaft entstammen dem analytischen Instrumentarium der Sozialwissenschaften und dienten dort ursprünglich der Prognose eines tiefgreifenden gesellschaftlichen Wandels. Wissens- und Informationsgesellschaft waren (und sind) Bezeichnungen für eine neue Phase in der Entwicklung fortgeschrittener industrieller Gesellschaften, bei der die zuvor auf Eigentum und Arbeit basierenden Verhältnisse durch eine neue Gesellschaftsformation abgelöst werden.
Im Rahmen soziologischer und wirtschaftswissenschaftlicher Analysen verweisen sie als Makrokategorien auf die wachsende Bedeutung von Wissen und wissensbasierten Tätigkeiten, von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien sowie informationsverarbeitenden Berufen. Im Zuge dieser weit verzweigten Debatten werden die Kategorien der Wissens- und Informationsgesellschaft oft deckungsgleich gebraucht.
