A chapter in Sustainability in a Digital World, 2017, pp 51-58 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract We are witnessing a rapid change in the way we work. Indeed, recent studies of the OECD point out that in the coming years, many jobs will disappear due to automation and digitalisation. At the same time, we also know that new forms of work and organisations will develop and that there will be an increasing demand for people who specifically have a high level of problem-solving and interpersonal skills. While organisations are changing and new challenges are arising from the digitalised economy, the role of leaders and coaches for teams and organisations will become increasingly important. This article puts emphasis on both the mindsets and skillsets needed by contemporary leaders to work for a company culture and a common understanding of how to sustainably and successfully manage their teams and organisations in the digital world.
