The Application of Leadership Concepts and Theories in Digital Era Educational Administration

Abstract

Educational leaders play a pivotal role in driving transformative changes in education. They must possess a visionary perspective to integrate technology seamlessly into teaching and learning processes, as well as administrative operations. Concurrently, fostering a culture that promotes continuous learning and digital skill development is essential. The application of diverse leadership theories, such as situational, behavioral, and trait theories, empowers leaders to adapt and navigate the complexities of the digital era effectively. Notably, the team leadership approach, which emphasizes collaboration and comprehensive personnel development, serves as a cornerstone for establishing modern learning environments and elevating educational standards to international benchmarks. This equips students with the necessary competencies to thrive in a technology-driven workforce.
