The convergence of leadership and technology – how leaders are considering the use of platforms and new technologies such as generative AI when working with individuals and developing teams - is the key issue for organizations as collaboration tools continue to evolve. Remote work, generative AI, cloud-based platforms, and other technologies are influencing how well teams and individuals interact and communicate. This book provides insight and guidance for leaders about the use of technology and its impact on leader/team development.
The Authors bring years of experience to this book focused on technology and leadership roles as well as cutting-edge research. They examine the ongoing evolution of technology tools, raising awareness about these challenges for leaders which in turn can inform future collaborative processes related to student and professional development.
