Abstract

This research investigates the transformative influence of artificial intelligence (AI) on contemporary leadership and management styles. By exploring five sub-research questions—AI's role in decision-making, impact on leadership communication, influence on team dynamics, ethical considerations, and long-term effects on organizational culture—the study delves into AI's integration within management practices. Employing a qualitative methodology, including interviews with industry leaders and managers, the findings reveal that AI significantly enhances decision-making accuracy, personalizes leadership communication, fosters collaborative team environments, and drives innovation within organizational cultures. However, challenges such as ethical dilemmas and resistance to cultural shifts persist. The study highlights the necessity of balancing technological advancements with human-centric leadership to navigate the complexities of AI-driven management.
