The Digital Leadership Scale developed by Bilginoğlu and Yozgat (2023) and the Psychological Comfort Scale developed by Yener (2015) were used as data collection tools. In the data analysis, frequency distribution was used to determine the features, a t-test was used to examine the relationship between two independent variables and a one-way analysis of variance was used to examine the relationship between more than two variables. The difference between the variables was interpreted based on the significance level p<0.05. There is no significant difference between the gender variable and the psychological comfort and digital leadership scales when the research findings are examined. There are significant differences between age and title variables and psychological comfort and digital leadership. On the other hand, while there was a significant difference between psychological comfort levels in working years and daily digital device usage periods, there was no significant difference between digital leadership levels.
