Cases on Talent Strategy in a VUCA Economy

Organizations today face unpredictable markets, fast-moving technologies, and shifting workforce expectations. In such an environment—often described as VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity)—traditional talent management approaches can fall short, requiring organizations to adopt more flexible, responsive, and forward-looking strategies to remain competitive. As a result, effective talent management has become a critical driver of organizational resilience and long-term success.

Cases on Talent Strategy in a VUCA Economy brings together a series of cases that demonstrate how leaders and human resource teams are adapting their practices to navigate uncertainty and change. Each case, drawn from real companies or thoughtfully constructed scenarios, illustrates practical solutions to talent-related challenges, helping readers better understand how organizations respond in a VUCA economy. Covering topics such as dynamic workforces, resilient employer brands, and performance management in a hybrid world, this book is a critical academic resource for graduate and doctoral students, educators, academic instructors, talent leaders, HR practitioners, and more.
