Siemens Supply Chain Management recognised this and therefore developed a Learning Journey for leaders, in which they should ask themselves how digital transformation is changing leadership.<\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-cg-blocks-group undefined section section--article-content\"><div class=\"article-main-content\"><div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-11 col-lg-10 offset-md-1 offset-lg-1\"><div class=\"article-text article-quote-text\">\n<p><strong>Internet of Things<\/strong>&nbsp;(IoT),&nbsp;<strong>Artificial Intelligence<\/strong>&nbsp;(AI),&nbsp;<strong>smart production<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 many people think of such buzzwords when it comes to digitalisation. But it\u2019s about more than just a technical process, a tool or automated production. Change begins in the mind of all employees. Therefore top-down approaches usually do not work, as all leaders have to get involved in the transformation and live the new mindset on a daily basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Siemens\u2019 Supply Chain Management<\/strong>&nbsp;(SCM) organisation recognized these challenges and launched the \u201cBoost Digitalisation @ SCM\u201d project. In addition to classic topics such as business models, technology and operations, it has made people themselves a critical success factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to spread the digital spirit throughout the company, leaders should spend one and a half days in a workshop dealing with the changes that digitalisation means for leadership. From July to September 2017, a team consisting of SCM and HR employees from Siemens and consultants from Capgemini Consulting developed the \u201c#DigitalLeader\u201d prototype for the leadership target group. Capgemini Consulting contributed its expertise, an external perspective and the know-how of other consulting mandates, especially as \u201clearning from others\u201d was generally seen as desirable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The team developed the concept of a \u201cDigital Journey\u201d, consisting of a preparation phase, the workshop and a follow-up phase in which the four main topics \u201cLeading in times of VUCA\u201d, \u201cDefining a Digital Leader\u201d, \u201cSelf-reflection\u201d and \u201cMake digitalisation work\u201d were dealt with. One key element of the learning journey is the so called \u201cOnline Reflection \u2013 Leading in the digital age (OR-LIDA)\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The questionnaire indicates whether and to what extent a leader is digital in his leadership style and whether he is capable of driving Digital Transformation in his own organisation. The participants use it to reflect on their roles and tasks as a leader in the digital age, to create awareness about relevant attitudes and behaviors for effective leadership in the digital age and to use results as a starting point for individual development. In addition, various learning formats and methods such as \u201cMicro Learnings\u201d, \u201cDigital Learning World\u201d, \u201cDigital Whiteboards\u201d and \u201cMentimeter\u201d were used to familiarise workshop participants with new formats and methods in addition to the main topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the workshop, the interactive exchange with other leaders was an essential component in order to generate new ideas for change. These were then recorded in a personal action plan and further elaborated with the employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two pilot versions of&nbsp;<strong>#DigitalLeader<\/strong>&nbsp;were launched in October 2017, followed a month later by the official presentation at the SCM World 2017 conference. The&nbsp;<strong>#DigitalLeader<\/strong>&nbsp;project developed into a success story in a very short time and is now being taken up throughout the Group according to the franchise concept: Implementation is carried out by the respective organisational unit itself. In the meantime, the idea has also been incorporated into the Siemens Corporate Learning portfolio. In addition, #Digital-Leader has become a brand of its own within the group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-overview\"><strong>Overview<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Customer
