Virtual leadership is essential in the current age of remote work and digital technology, requiring leaders to adapt their management style to provide guidance and support to their followers. A contemplative approach focusing on building rapport and providing moral support can especially be effective in virtual settings, while an initiating structure style is better suited for complex tasks or highly competent teams. Managing a virtual workforce requires a unique set of abilities to collaborate, lead, and manage remotely.
