MAIN BODY:
Role of leadership and management development
According to the view points of Johan aurik, 2018 automating leadership is a case that is
describing the way advances in analytics and the artificial intelligence has lead to creation of
capacity for connection, augmentation and automation in the every aspects of life. These
wonders have alienated the impact on everyday working lives as practises are very frequently too
cumbersome.

Organisation today are dealing with the technology mark-storm. The internet of things is
resulting into a augmented reality & the virtual reality that is leading to better speed in which
activities and function are performed in the organisation.
In case of TUI the use of new technologies in the regular functioning of the organisations has
lead to complete revolutionist of the execution of task (Hallinger, 2018).
Technology is essential in hospitality industry for the purpose of creating a greater customer
value and at lower cost, it is one of the most effective formula for achievement of higher growth
in better profitability terms. But in case of practical application there is sometimes higher
difficulty to hold the profits from the overall gains that are received from the digital advances.
Major benefits are passed on the customers to remain competitive in the changing markets.
The major concern that comes in organisations like TUI is related to the social concern of the
way work as technologies may replace the job and people which sometimes leads to negative
impact on the existing workforce and there productivity declines which has a effect on the
overall organisations profitability.
The major challenge for leadership is to deploy the new technologies in a way that can
lead to fresh efficiencies and also to amplify the human creativity, judgement and ingenuity.
Augmenting leadership can lead to enhancement of the leadership capabilities os that challenges
can be meet and there is achievement of future prosperity (Podsakoff and Podsakoff, 2019).
Agile teams & minimum viable products are not good enough:
The digital organisations is a magnitude to reach to specified standards but sometimes
leaders are defaulting in creation of autonomous teams and it may require more focus towards
innovate effectively. This approach is limited to the long term succubus and immediate impact in
the changing digitized world. With the digitization it sometimes becomes very difficult to deploy
the unfamiliar solutions at a meaningful scale. As much of the human talent of organisation is
not changing and the growth and adaptation is remaining untapped. technologies is changing the
management style & growth of virtual leaders”
There are different types of management styles that can be used by the leaders for the
purpose of focussing on the way new technology disruption can be adopted in order to transform
the overall technology disruption of a organisation.

Above mentioned matrix describes the way new and updated technologies scan be used in
organisations for the purpose of revolutionizing the execution of tasks (Thorpe, 2016). Where
the transactional approaches combined with cognitive leads to automating Management of AI to
optimize the business processes and cognitive with shaping leads to focus on augmenting
leadership where in TUI the technology is used to shape the future of business activities and
processes.

Use of technologies to amplify the human talent and insight: according to the tasks that have to
be performed new technologies is based on use of Artificial intelligence and analytics that can be
used of navigating the uncharted waters of industries turmoil that requires judgement,
imagination and sometimes machines are incapable of doing these activities (Gould, Gallagher
and Allen, 2016).
For TUI the leaders and managers are working towards substantial transformation in the
leadership where there is focus on technology empowerment. It leads to development of a
technology integrated leadership systems that blends with the human qualities in the
organisation.
Critically analyse challenges experienced in the industrial workforce
With the development of new technologies and modern computing in the digital
environment there has been automation of systems and process that is leading to evolution of
digital technology that has lead to rise of analytics driven and
