This research aims to study the level of digitalera
leadership in university, examine the acceptance of technology
among university personnel, and investigate the impact of
leadership on technology adoption. A quantitative research
approach was employed, collecting data from 354 academic and
administrative staff. A multi-stage sampling method was used,
incorporating cluster sampling. Hypothesis testing was conducted
using T-test and ANOVA to compare differences between sample
groups. Additionally, regression analysis was performed to explore
the relationship between leadership characteristics and technology
acceptance among university personnel. The findings provide
insights into how digital leadership influences technological
adaptation within the academic environment.
The findings revealed that: (1) the majority of participants were
female, support personnel, with 16–20 years of work experience, and
held a bachelor's degree; (2) differences in work experience and
department significantly affected technology acceptance; and (3)
leadership characteristics, including team management,
collaboration, and technological competency, significantly
influenced technology acceptance among university personnel.
These findings highlight the importance of fostering leadership
attributes to enhance readiness and confidence in adapting to
changes in the digital era.
