Abstract

The current concept of leadership emphasizes the need for strategic leaders to adapt and learn in varying environments under the VUCA (Volatility–Uncertainty–Complexity–Ambiguity) paradigm, while maintaining integrity and engaging in continuous learning. Among multidisciplinary leadership approaches—including visioning, ethical values, and corporate governance—strategic leadership stands out as a consistent, proactive approach to problem-solving. Leadership requires cooperation with successive teams as organizational hierarchical and bureaucratic arrangements change. New ethical challenges emerge as digitization and artificial intelligence become commonplace. Data analysis for decision-making can lead to algorithm bias and privacy issues, prompting leaders to assess the ethics of algorithms. Leaders must integrate human elements with technological developments while fulfilling moral obligations. Economic well-being, environmental sustainability, and social welfare must be balanced across social, environmental, economic, and institutional dimensions.
