Digital technologies are changing the nature of teamwork in ways that have important implications for leadership. Though conceptually rich and multi-disciplinary, much of the burgeoning work on technology has not been fully integrated into the leadership literature. To fill this gap, we organize existing work on leadership and technology, outlining four perspectives: (1) technology as context, (2) technology as sociomaterial, (3) technology as creation medium, and (4) technology as teammate. Each technology perspective makes assumptions about how technologies affect teams and the needs for team leadership. Within each perspective, we detail current work on leading teams. This section takes us from virtual teams to new vistas posed by leading online communities, crowds, peer production groups, flash teams, human-robot teams, and human-artificial intelligence teams. We identify 12 leadership implications arising from the ways digital technologies affect organizing. We then leverage our review to identify directions for future leadership research and practice.
数字技术正在改变团队合作的性质，这对领导力有着重要影响。尽管在概念上丰富且多学科，但许多新兴的技术相关工作尚未完全融入领导力文献。为填补这一空白，我们梳理了关于领导力与技术的现有工作，概述了四个视角：（1）技术作为背景，（2）技术作为社会物质，（3）技术作为创作媒介，以及（4）技术作为团队成员。每个技术视角都对技术如何影响团队以及团队领导力的需求做出了假设。在每个视角内，我们详细阐述了当前关于领导团队的工作。本节将我们从虚拟团队带到了领导在线社区、群体、对等生产小组、临时团队、人机团队和人类 - 人工智能团队所带来的新视野。我们确定了数字技术影响组织方式所产生的12个领导力影响。然后，我们利用我们的综述来确定未来领导力研究和实践的方向。
