Abstract: This study investigates the complex interrelationships between digital leadership competencies, crisis management capabilities, and adaptation strategies among school administrators in Bangkok, Thailand. Using a mixed-methods approach that combines quantitative surveys (n=342) and qualitative interviews (n=38), the research identifies five critical dimensions of effective school leadership: digital competency integration, strategic crisis navigation, adaptive instructional leadership, student-centered digital pedagogies, and continuous professional self-development. Administrators demonstrating high proficiency across these dimensions achieved 33% higher teacher satisfaction rates and 38% greater success in digital transformation. The study advances a theoretical framework for understanding educational leadership in digitally transforming contexts, offering practical implications for leadership development programs in Bangkok and similar urban educational settings. This research addresses a significant gap in understanding how school administrators in emerging economies navigate the complex interplay between digital transformation, crisis management, and evolving student needs in the digital era.
