Abstract

This research aims to examine the influence of digital leadership on digital transformation through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method. In the era of rapid digital transformation, digital leadership plays a key role in integrating digital technology into all aspects of business and improving operational efficiency, innovation, and competitiveness. This study identifies current research trends and gaps by reviewing 17 articles published in reputable journals from 2020–2024. The results show that digital leadership directly and indirectly influences organizational performance, mainly through mediating digital culture and employee digital capabilities. In addition, organizational agility driven by digital transformational leadership and digital strategy consensus is important in supporting successful digital transformation. Despite many significant findings, the study also identified gaps, including a lack of long-term research and research in various geographical and cultural contexts. Based on these findings, it is recommended that future research focus on the long-term impact of digital leadership, digital competency development, and increased collaboration between academics and practitioners to develop more effective and sustainable digital transformation strategies.
