Good Leadership and Work in the Digital Transformation
Comparative approaches and instruments for leadership development in the digital age
Background
Leadership is both affected by the trend towards digitalisation itself whilst having to shape it at the same time. Leadership roles, leadership concepts and leadership competencies are undergoing – and must undergo – major changes.
Good leadership aims to achieve the best possible synergies between digital potential and human potential. This means using technologies to enable forms of self-organisation that empower and upskill employees, allowing them to use and develop their full range of knowledge, competence and creativity throughout the organisation.
Workplace innovation, with its grounding in well-established socio-technical principles, is proving its robustness as a means of orientating and resourcing managers in implementing digital technologies effectively.
European Workplace Innovation Network (EUWIN)
EUWIN was established by the European Commission in 2013 and is now entirely supported by contributions from an international network of partners co-ordinated by HIVA (University of Leuven). EUWIN also functions as a network partner for the H2020 Beyond4.0 project.
