Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,3, University of applied sciences, Düsseldorf, language: English, abstract: How digital is today's leadership in view of time change? Which success factors speak for a good DL and what kinds of changes are needed with regard to everyday working life in companies? These and further questions are discussed in this paper. The aim of this paper is to focus specifically on DL and at the same time to answer the question of how today's leadership and management can manifest itself in the digital world. For this reason, the topic of digitalisation, which consists of the relevance, as well as the definitions of digitalisation, leadership and the combination of both, will be analysed in more detail in chapter 2 at the beginning of this work. Furthermore, the changes in the general workday are also examined in a more thorough way. Taking into account the previously acquired knowledge, the paper then concentrates on the capabilities and success factors of DL based on DT. In addition, the paper also deals with a comparison of leadership and management and closes with the challenges. The theoretically based facts are then followed by the practical example of Google in chapter 4. After a short presentation of the company and its culture, the paper goes on to DL at Google. Finally, the work concludes with a summary of the main findings on the relevant topic in chapter 5, and at the same time also presents an outlook.
