Overview: The digital transformation of organizations continues at a frenetic pace. While some companies have achieved trailblazer status, others are finding it difficult to change and therefore are lagging. Digital leaders play a pivotal role in this transition because they can increase the confidence of their organizations behind these often risky and disruptive initiatives. In this article, we present our efforts to i) separate the practices of digitally developing and digitally mature organizations―particularly those of their leaders, ii) determine the specific trust-building actions of digitally mature leaders, iii) develop a scale to measure the human dimensions of digital leaders, and iv) discuss the future development of a reliable scale and self-assessment tool that digital leaders can use to assess their own readiness to accelerate digital initiatives.
Die digitale Transformation stellt die Unternehmensführung vor große und insbesondere auch neue Herausforderungen. Dazu gehört neben der Entwicklung neuer Positionierungsalternativen im Markt und von Geschäftsmodellen auch die Realisierung eines Führungs- und Managementverständnisses, welches die enorme Geschwindigkeit der digitalen Transformation in den Fokus stellt und bewältigen kann. Damit ergeben sich neue Perspektiven und Grundannahmen des strategischen Managements: Weg von einer planungszentrierten Sichtweise hin zu einer auf die Schaffung vielfältiger Optionen und das Denken in Szenarien ausgerichteten Sichtweise. In diesem Kapitel werden die Determinanten der Führung in der digitalen Transformation vorgestellt. Davon ausgehend werden die neuen Aufgaben der Führung, die zur Realisierung der Transformation aufzubauenden Muster von Führungsorganisationen und die für die digitale Transformation geeigneten Führungsprinzipien und -stile dargelegt.

Digital Leadership – Which leadership dimensions contribute to digital transformation success?
(2021)
The digital transformation of industry and
society continues to advance. While some companies are
achieving trailblazer status, others are finding it difficult to
manage or even initiate the necessary changes. Top-level leaders
play a central role in these transformational processes, as they
have the opportunity to directly or indirectly influence decisive
variables. In this article, we present the results of interviews
with 13 digital leaders who have successfully implemented the
necessary changes for the digital transformation of their
companies. The results of the interviews provide key dimensions
for leaders to digitally transform their companies.
