Нови интегративни лидерски модели и перспективи в дигитален контекст

Abstract: The specific dimensions (characteristics) of leadership in the context of the new paradigm and in the conditions of digital transformation are examined. The focus is placed on the evolutionary development of the leadership perspective, which finds concrete expression in four reference frames of application: development of individual technical and/or functional skills; team competence (use of knowledge and talents); organizational or systemic; and network (beyond organizational boundaries). The new (integrative) approaches to leadership are analyzed, the new paradigm through the prism of leadership roles, neo-charismatic leadership models (transactional, charismatic and transformational) and digital leadership in the conditions of digital transformation and virtual team context. The conclusion that follows is that the new theories of leadership are integrative. They examine more than one characteristic of leadership, including distinctive traits, behavior, processes of influence and situational context. The author's main thesis is that from the point of view of specific research and applications of leadership in a team environment, processes of evolution of concepts occur and a reassessment of generally accepted truths and accumulated knowledge is required.
