This involves comprehensive planning that encompasses all tasks and areas within the institution. Modern educational management requires the integration of contemporary administrative processes. This includes organizational restructuring, cultivating a positive organizational culture, utilizing information technology, effectively managing human resources, and implementing robust control and evaluation of strategies. The digital era has brought about rapid global changes, emphasizing the crucial role of leadership in driving organizational success. With the increasing prominence of digital technology, leaders must adapt and modify their management styles across various dimensions. This article explores the characteristics of leadership in the digital age, focusing on two key aspects: 1) Planning to identify areas requiring transformation, and 2) Equipping leaders with the knowledge and understanding to leverage digital technologies effectively, ultimately enhancing organizational efficiency and effectiveness.
