@inproceedings{Tuschner2022, abstract = {Due to the rapid changes in work environments caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, leadership has shifted from face-to-face to virtual contexts. Accordingly, the new challenges require specific e-leader traits. To summarize the divergent scholarly discussion, we conducted a systematic review and identified distal (i.e., personality, cognitive abilities, motives and attitudes, and core beliefs) and proximal (i.e., skills) attributes of e-leaders. Our results show that some traditional leader traits such as technological, communication, motivational, and organizational skills are also important for e-leadership. However, certain traits become increasingly important in virtual contexts: e-leaders need adaptability and risk- taking to deal with constant change, and higher cultural, social, and emotional intelligence to foster collaboration in diversified teams. In addition, digital technologies require particular change management, coaching, and trust-building skills. Our findings contribute to the current discussion on e-leadership and help practitioners train their leaders towards the identified e-leader profile.}, address = {Timisoara, Romania}, author = {Tuschner, Christian and Krath, Jeanine and Bings, Jan and Schwenkmezger, Marvin and Etzkorn, Manuel and von Korflesch, Harald}, booktitle = {Thirtieth European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS 2022)}, title = {{Leading in the Digital Age: A Systematic Review on Leader Traits in the Context of e-Leadership}}, year = {2022} }
