Definition of digital native with common skills of digital natives and leadership barriers in

which include expertise in use of digital technology, technological literacy, multitasking, ability
to understand social media terminology and social networking skills.

leaders and digital native workers is another barrier to effective leadership.

limitations or strengths.
Mega change is system wide transformation of the firm while change can be
transformational, developmental or transitional. Mega change affects every aspect of the
company and results in joint optimisation of individual and organisational performance for the
growth of the company. Change is different from mega change in a way that it can be
incremental for continuous development of the firm and focused on certain areas of the firm
