Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,3, AKAD University of Applied Sciences Stuttgart, language: English, abstract: The goal of this written paper is to show managers how they need to change their leadership style due to working in a home office, how they can prepare for it, and what skills are required for this. How does or must leadership change because of the work in the home office? What new style of leadership does this entail? And how can managers adapt to the new change?

Due to the current fourth industrial revolution, digitalization is not only changing the way we live but also the way we work, thus having a decisive impact on the growth as well as the innovative power of companies and organizations. Many companies are undergoing a digital transformation in response to this change. Mobile working in itself has been an integral part of the working world for several years now. Open-plan offices are already a thing of the past in many companies, and fixed workstations are no longer assigned. For employees, this is accompanied by the loss of collegial as well as personal relationships. Managers are also faced with the challenge of not only managing their teams virtually, but also driving digital change processes within the company.

At the beginning of this assignment, we will first take a closer look at the term leadership in order to provide a basic understanding, followed by digital leadership and a brief explanation of the home office in the next chapter. In the next chapter, the question of how leadership must change as a result of work in the home office is explained. It also looks at how exactly managers can prepare for this and what qualifications and characteristics are needed for this new style of leadership in order to adapt optimally to the new change. The entire topic is then made clear by means of an independently selected example. The last two chapters then provide an outlook on the future of the home office, as well as a conclusion and a critical appraisal.
