The Role of Organizational Culture and Digital Leadership in Enhancing Employee Development Skills During Digital Transformation: Mediating Role of Technology Readiness
Description
This study investigates the relationships between Digital Leadership, Organizational Culture, Technology Readiness, and Employee Development Skills within organizational settings. Using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), data were analyzed to evaluate both the measurement and structural models. The results highlight Technology Readiness as a critical mediator, linking leadership and cultural factors to employee skill development. Organizational Culture demonstrated a strong influence on Technology Readiness, while Digital Leadership had a moderate effect. The findings offer theoretical contributions by advancing the understanding of leadership and cultural frameworks in fostering technological adaptation. Practical implications include the need for organizations to prioritize innovation-driven cultures and visionary leadership to enhance employee readiness and skills. This research provides actionable insights for organizational leaders while opening avenues for future exploration of additional mediators and contextual applications.
