Abstract
Purpose: Digital leadership has become prominent in bridging digital transformation in organizations. Despite the surge in research on digital leadership, there is still a gap in understanding its dimensions. This research investigates the determination of digital leadership based on style, role, and skill from various research articles and presents the dimensions of digital leadership. Design/Methodology/Approach: The study collected 527 samples in Indonesia from employees who work at the staff level in a digital workplace and have undergone the digital transformation process to measure the dimensions of digital leadership. The collected data were analyzed with SPSS using the Exploratory Factor Analysis method. Findings: Six dimensions were extracted in this research: the first factor was digital skills, the second factor was facilitating digital literacy, the third factor was supporting, the fourth factor was knowledge sharing, the fifth factor was openness to a growth mindset, and the sixth factor was transparency. The results of this research contribute to elucidating the term digital leadership through six dimensions of skill, role, and style, and provide guidance for measuring the digital leadership variable. Nonetheless, this study collected data from employees at the staff level in a digital workplace, so it should also gather data directly from managers and CEOs to provide another perspective on digital leadership. Practical Implication: The implications of this research are to measure the competency of leaders in the digital era in terms of skill, role, and style, and to serve as a benchmark for choosing digital leaders. Originality/Value: These findings contribute to addressing the gap between traditional leaders and digital leaders by using factor analysis to develop the dimensions of digital leadership.
