“Coping with uncertainty, ambiguity and risk” is one of 15 competences that any learner can develop to become entrepreneurial, according to the European Commission Entrepreneurship Competence Framework (http://europa.eu/!tx78fG), known as the EntreComp. 

In this video, Andy Penaluna, Director of the International Institute for Creative Entrepreneurial Development (http://www.uwtsd.ac.uk/iiced) at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David, explains that students can be exposed to uncertain, ambiguous activities where things change, deadlines shifts and there are no clear instructions on what shall be done next. Being exposed to such situations allows them to develop strategies to cope and learn to flexibly adapt to changing environments.
