To stay competitive, the central challenge for many companies at present is to master the process of transformation in the sense of a fundamental redesign of central processes or even of the entire company. Digitization and the need to redefine and reposition oneself in a sustainable economy are just two examples of the main drivers of this transformation. In this context, the basic question of the fundamental necessity of a comprehensive transformation in the sense of a business transformation no longer even arises for most companies in the age of digital transformation. Instead, the focus is on the question of how companies can manage the complexity associated with the scope of a transformation and the necessary changes in terms of the business strategy and on how to ensure the efficiency and success of the transformation. The challenge is to simultaneously design new structures and systems on the substantive level and also to break up established patterns of behavior.
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.
