In the Digital Age the world is experiencing an immense growth of advanced digital technologies such as robotics, big data analytics, virtual reality, or artificial intelligence. Hundreds if not thousands of new applications and social media tools are introduced every day changing how people gain and process information, how they communicate or learn but more importantly how people think and solve problems. These all present a huge challenge for all leaders especially senior ones. Thus, this book reveals senior leaders’ perspective to find out how digitalization of teamwork and decision-making changes trust relations at interpersonal level. Moreover, it sheds light on the role of moral trust on eliminating possible gaps in interpersonal trust. Based on 36 years of leadership experience, the author analyzes theoretical backgrounds and compares them with empirical data collected from practitioners. Based on the findings, this research offers a tool that can be used in the design of leadership training or individual leadership coaching concepts. In sum, this book intends to prepare today´s leaders to meet tomorrow´s challenges, especially senior ones who are mostly equipped with an analogue leadership toolbox but have to face the leadership challenges of the Digital Age.

A uniquely interesting book about the real challenges of Transformational Leadership in the Digital Age. A particularly relevant topic today: which leadership approach is more effective in the modern world? What are the difficulties of (senior) leaders by driving digital transformation? Dr. Csombók's book provides not only real context but answers too, therefore I can sincerely recommend for a wide range of readers, military and civilians, academics, and practitioners alike (General (ret.) Zoltán Szenes, former Chief of Defense of Hungary, Emeritus Professor of Ludovika University of Public Service Budapest, Hungary.

This book adds innovative findings to the discussion on digital transformation. It not only contributes to fill a research gap by focusing on trust in (military) organisations in the age of digitalisation, but also by emphasising that moral trust, which is often seen as an old- fashioned element, can play an essential role in bridging gaps in interpersonal trust. The latter seems particularly relevant to me (Prof. Dr. Cristina Besio, Professor for Sociology, especially Sociology of Organizations, Helmut Schmidt University, Institute of Social Sciences, Hamburg, Germany).
