eBook: Digital Leadership (in German)

Description

This eBook offers you a comprehensive introduction to the topic of leadership in the digital age. It describes the profound change processes that are currently taking place in the field of people management. The text thus provides you with useful knowledge with which you can strengthen your own position in the company and advance successful work in teams in a contemporary manner. Section by section, different aspects of this change are described. Each section builds on the others and should be read in order. If you already have extensive knowledge in one of the areas, you can skip this section. At the end of the text, you should have received a holistic view of the new type of agile leadership.

In its explanations, the eBook builds on the results from scientific research. On technical vocabulary and a dry scientific way of writing was renounced in favor of an easily understandable way of writing. Thus the eBook offers also for readers, who did not argue yet at all with the topic Leadership, a helpful introduction. Where important technical terms are used, however, you will find a clear explanation at the appropriate place. At the end of the eBook, you will find literature references that can provide useful services for further study of individual areas of the topic.

The first two major sections of the eBook introduce the basics of leadership and changes in leadership. To this end, the first section discusses new forms of leadership in the Digital Age. This section addresses the positioning of modern leadership between flexible networking and active responsibility. This addresses a tension in which leaders move in the Digital Age.

The role of vision for successful leadership and the goal of team building as a characteristic of modern leadership competence are then addressed. The second section is then devoted to changes in leadership as described in academic research. This part of the book brings you up to date with the current state of research on leadership. To this end, some research findings are first recapitulated. Then you will get practical tips on how to lead people in organizations. Next, important trends at the beginning of the 21st century are addressed

The third section is dedicated to a core business of leadership: here, the focus is on communication structures. You will learn how digital exchange and modern networking affect communication and what conclusions you should draw from this for your own actions. Another important aspect of communication is the flat hierarchies that are typical of the digital age. They will also be a significant topic in this section.

In precisely these structures, you as a decision-maker must manage to establish liabilities and to steer toward long-term goals together as a team. For this purpose, the eBook provides you with practical tips. The fourth section is dedicated to the role that technical applications and digital tools can play in these flat hierarchies. You will be surprised how efficiently cooperation between managers and intelligent technology can work today.

In the fifth section, you will learn about the possibilities of smart technology in supporting control processes in companies. They can be a good help for executives here. However, for them to be so, technology must be used in a targeted manner. In this section, you will learn what you should pay attention to in this regard. On the one hand, the eBook will talk about the potential of artificial intelligence, and on the other hand, it will emphasize the role of the human factor. If you as a decision maker want to lead people successfully, you should focus on participation. Modern technology can provide you with good support in precisely this regard. The eBook concludes with a conclusion. In this, the most important results of the reading are briefly recapitulated. Subsequently, the conclusion casts an outlook on possible developments that are currently emerging in the field of leadership and could become increasingly important in the coming years.

In the digital age, the demands facing leaders are becoming increasingly complex. Scientific research has shown that classic demands are also being placed on managers. For example, they should be strong in practical communication and demonstrate a positive approach to permanent change processes. For a strong executive, changes in the market or in society are not a threat. On the contrary, they are perceived as a challenge – and accepted as such.

A manager is therefore also expected to be open-minded and strategically skilled when dealing with the changes that digital technology is bringing to society. But far more competencies are described as characteristics of leadership. In addition to communication skills and a willingness to embrace change, appreciation of employees and the ability to work as part of a team and build teams also play a major role. Technology can provide support for many of these competencies today. Competence in dealing with technical applications and digital technology is therefore an important basic skill. But it is by no means the only challenge for modern leadership.

Communication between people and cooperation in groups has changed as a result of global exchange and networking with a wide range of technical devices. Today, it takes place much more flexibly. Leadership must adapt to this – and specifically reinforce the advantages of this agile collaboration. At the same time, teams are coming together in a different way than was the case ten years ago. If a manager wants to strengthen these teams, his or her actions must also be specifically adapted to this type of collaboration.

Not every leader has yet grasped the many changes currently facing them. By learning about the modern form of leadership in the digital age, you can efficiently and accurately support modern collaboration in the workplace. At the same time, you must learn that you also need to demand commitment. The flexible networks of our time can otherwise lead to responsibilities diffusing and no longer being clearly assigned. With the right techniques, you can prevent this and ensure that your projects get done successfully. There are even technical applications that can ensure that at the right time everyone is reminded to complete their work steps. If individual items are then not completed, you as a manager must act and ensure that the overall goal is not jeopardized as a result. Unlike in earlier times, however, you do not have to complete the tasks yourself. You can delegate tasks back to groups with the right strategies. In this way, you relieve yourself and have your hands free for further decisions.
