Abstract

The rapid development of technology and the dynamic changes in the VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) era present significant challenges for public organizations in Indonesia. This study employs a literature review approach to explore the influence of digital leadership on the organizational resilience of public institutions. By analyzing existing theories and empirical studies, the research identifies key characteristics of digital leadership that foster adaptability, innovation, and agility in public organizations. The findings emphasize the importance of digital competencies, strategic vision, and change management in enhancing organizational resilience. This study provides valuable insights for policymakers and public administrators, offering a theoretical foundation for developing effective strategies to address the challenges of the VUCA era
