Öz

Bu çalışma, uzaktan çalışma ve liderlik modellerinin evrimini "Hybrid Work Models", "Remote Leadership", "Virtual Leadership", "Digital Leadership", ve "Leadership in Hybrid Workplaces" gibi anahtar kavramlar etrafında bir bibliyometrik analizle incelemektedir. Web of Science veri tabanından elde edilen 1788 makale, uzaktan çalışma bağlamında liderlik stratejilerindeki temel dönüşümleri ortaya koymaktadır. VOSviewer yazılımı kullanılarak yapılan atıf ağı, anahtar kelime birlikte görülme ve yazar işbirliği analizleri, uzaktan liderliğin literatürde hızla yükselen bir tema olduğunu ve dijital dönüşümle birlikte yeni liderlik stillerinin benimsendiğini göstermektedir. "Digital Leadership" ve "Remote Leadership" gibi ana temalar, COVID-19 sonrası iş dünyasında yeni araştırma eksenleri oluştururken, hibrit ve sanal çalışma ortamlarının çalışan bağlılığı ve esnek liderlik modellerine etkisi araştırmanın temel bulgularından biridir. Bu çalışma, literatürdeki mevcut boşlukları analiz ederek, uzaktan liderliğin gelecekteki yönelimlerini ortaya koymakta ve küresel işbirliği ağlarını detaylandırarak akademik dünyaya katkı sunmayı hedeflemektedir.

The Transformation of Leadership in Remote and Hybrid Work Models: A Bibliometric Analysis on Digital Leadership and Virtual Team Management

Öz

This study provides a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the evolution of remote work and leadership models, focusing on key concepts such as "Hybrid Work Models," "Remote Leadership," "Virtual Leadership," "Digital Leadership," and "Leadership in Hybrid Workplaces." Drawing from 1788 articles in the Web of Science database, the study highlights fundamental shifts in leadership strategies within the context of remote work. Using VOSviewer software, citation networks, co-occurrence of keywords, and co-authorship networks were analyzed, revealing that remote leadership has rapidly emerged as a key theme in the literature. The findings also indicate that with the acceleration of digital transformation, new leadership styles have been adopted. Core themes such as "Digital Leadership" and "Remote Leadership" have shaped new research trajectories in the post-COVID-19 business environment, where hybrid and virtual work settings have significantly impacted employee engagement and flexible leadership models. By analyzing the existing gaps in the literature, this study aims to map future directions for remote leadership and contribute to the global academic discourse by detailing international collaboration networks.
