Abstract
The roles of the leadership in the digital age are shifting to artificial intelligence (AI), data protection, and cybersecurity. Even as these technologies are efficient and innovative, they pose compelling legal and ethical issues with regard to accountability, privacy, bias and security. This paper elaborates on how leaders have to cope with the changing regulatory frameworks and new AI governance regimes, as well as increasing cybersecurity requirements. The paper has depended on case studies that bring out the dilemmas, the leaders have to decide in balancing compliance, innovation, and ethical stewardship. It proposes that leadership demands going beyond basic adherence to the law to the creation of organizational cultures of responsibility, transparency and resilience. The paper applies doctrinal legal research methodology that derives information on legal policies and regulations including a comparative case study of case studies that are not only domestic but also international in consideration of the globalization that has been achieved by technology. Finally, the paper suggests a leadership model that can combine both legal responsibility and ethical vision in handling AI, data and cybersecurity threats.
